Nyatike Chuol My name is Nyatike Chuol and I have just finished my Bachelor of Arts Degree at the University of Waterloo. My major is history and I have always been drawn to researching the stories of marginalized people. I was always under the impression that much of the historical sources only contained the narratives of the literate elite. My study of the Black Loyalists has shown that the sources are there, they are just waiting for someone with enough patience to examine them.
