| Male Slave Dungeon |
We went to the Cape Coast Castle today, our last full day in West Africa. This was a major consolidation and holding site for West African slaves going to the Americas. The exhibits and the tour were powerful. Being inside the slave cells and hearing how gruesome conditions were, left us wondering how people could have treated each other that way. It was unbelievable to discover that the colonists’ chapel was located directly above the slave cells.
