Visiting the Elmina Slave Castles in Capecoast, Ghana | Saadiq Ranks
Whats good! As a class we went to the Elmina castle and the Assin Manso Last bath sites in Capecoast, Ghana. This was a heavy but meaningful experience to undergo and excited that I can share this. We visit, recap, and reflect on the experience. Let me know your thoughts in the comments, love.

This was a great video, I really enjoyed it.
I love this, thank you!
With respect to this channel, current President is a member of the Royal Family, he descendant benefitted from selling slaves to the Caucasians, yet still, he is saying the year of bullshit Return. hmmm
So important and so appreciated. Thank you for documenting this experience!
Screw Ghana and the Akan people. The Asante nation were the main tribe who sold rival tribes they defeated to the Portugese, who were the original builders of castles at El Mina and cape coast. The Akan people were involved in human trafficking since the 1400's. To my knowledge, the Asantehene has NEVER apologized for his ancestor's role in facilitating the Transatlantic Slave Trade.
This is not fun, funny. Black man is still wicked and
Did they put their feet in there
People don’t see how wonderful it is for this river to flow since the slave trade era up to date
I did this tour last September and was very moved by the experience. When we call these castles, we have to be cognizant of the lens we're viewing it from. For the owners, they were castles, but to the enslaved, they were dungeons. Btw, our ancestors were NOT slaves. In fact, they were free people who were enslaved. Great video!
FYI Cameroon has it's own slave castle. A massive one at that. 47 acres of land
" Bimbia slave castle" Cameroon. Slaves were shipped directly from Cameroon to the West. Eventhough it has been abandoned and not as publicised as that of Ghana, a good number of slaves were taken from Cameroon. I am from Cameroon and feel extremely sad about the whole slavery thing. Ubuntu!
Tippu Tip got the pure Africans, in the enterer of the motherland…not the mixed Coastal ones
Great video, thanks for sharing
