Assin Manso Slave river Park
What to See

Ancestral Graveyard;

Assin Manso served as the place where slaves had their last bath on their journey. It also has the site where the returned remains of 2 diasporans (Lady Crystal from Jamaica and Carson from New York) were re-buried. The Emancipation day durbar together with the visit to the slave river as well as laying of wreaths at the graves of returnees are thus held annually on August 1 to commemorate and climax the celebrations.

Memorial Wall of Return;

The Memorial Wall of Return is where most Africans write their names on the wall indicating they have found their root. There was an epitaph which pays tribute to some prominent people who were involved in slavery. Captured Africans were forced to trek barefoot, through the harsh bush and over rough terrain for sometimes hundreds of miles headed to the Gold Coast Dungeon. They suffered abuse, were starved and beaten into compliance by the hired drivers of the slave merchant. They were often attacked by wild animals, but unable to fight or run because they remained shackled and chained. Many lives and spirits were lost along this hazardous journey.

THE LAST BATH;

On the way to the coastal dungeon, the slave merchants stopped at the DONKOR NSUO, ”the slave river”, in Assin Manso. Captured Africans were allowed to recuperate there after their long journey. Here, they were well fed and rested for several days or weeks. The merchants knew they could guarantee higher prices if they appeared healthy and strong. DONKO NSUO is where the captives would take their last bath in waters of their native land. The Portuguese began the inhumane practice of branding. They would use a red, hot branding iron to burn an identifying nark onto the skin of captives. The burns mark would leave a scar on the shoulder, the breast or the upper arm to show ownership. Other times branding was used to show that proper duty had been paid. When it was time to leave, they were sorted, leaving the weak ones behind chained trees, where the unthinkable happened. The stronger captives continued walking for approximately 40 miles to Cape Coast Castle, still shacked and chained.

🌍 Join us at Farafina Travels on a mission to illuminate the true essence of the African continent! 🚀 We're committed to unraveling misconceptions and dispelling misrepresentations by sharing authentic facts and stories about Africa.

🎉 Join our community and be part of the movement to celebrate the beauty, resilience, and dynamism of Africa. Let's rewrite the narrative together! 🌍✨

THIS YOU WILL NEVER LEARN IN SCHOOL

° Africa area = 30,37 million km2
° China area = 9,6 million km2
° US area = 9,8 million km2
° Europa area = 10,18 million km2
● Africa is bigger than all of Europe, China and the United States of America together.
● But on most world maps, Africa is represented in downsize.
This is deliberately done to create the visual effect of a small Africa to manipulate, brainwash, and deceive Africans wherever they are.
- Africa has 60 % arable land;
- Africa owns 90 % of raw material reserve;
- Africa owns 40 % of the global gold reserve;
- Africa, 33 % of diamond reserve;
- Africa has 80 % of Coltan's global reserve (mineral for telephone and electronics production), mainly in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
- Africa has 60 % of global cobalt reserve (mineral for car battery manufacture)
- Africa is rich in oil and natural gas.
- Africa (Namibia) has the world's richest fish coastline.
- Africa is rich in manganese, iron and wood.
- Africa is three times the area of China, three times the area of Europe, three times the United States of America.
- Africa has thirty-half million km2 (30 875 415 km2);
- Africa has 1,3 billion inhabitants (China has 1,4 billion inhabitants in 9,6 million km2).
Which means Africa is SUBPOPULATED.
-The arable lands of the Democratic Republic of Congo are capable of feeding all of Africa.
And all of Africa's arable land is a cord to feed the whole world.
- The Democratic Republic of Congo has important rivers that can illuminate Africa.
The problem is that the CIA, western companies and some African puppets have destabilized DRC for decades.
- Africa is a culturally diverse continent in terms of dance, music, architecture, sculpture, etc.
- Africa accommodates 30.000 medicinal recipes and herbs that the West modifies in its laboratories.
- Africa has a young global population that should reach 2,5 billion by the year 2050.
● AFRICA REPRESENTS THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY
