Come to Bahrain 🇧🇭 with me !
A beautiful and small island 🏝️ country in the Persian gulf that is full of surprises and amazing multicultural.
Visiting historical sites like the Cape Coast and Elmina Castles, where the stories of the transatlantic slave trade come alive, offers a profound perspective on the past. These poignant experiences provide insights that reshape your understanding of history and its lasting impact on the present.
Elmina Castle in Ghana, one of the oldest European structures in sub-Saharan Africa, played a pivotal role in the transatlantic slave trade.
The dungeons, where countless Africans were held before being shipped away, present a stark and harrowing reality of the past. Visiting these dungeons can be an emotionally intense experience, but it's crucial for understanding the depth of the trauma endured by ancestors.
visiting these sites is a spiritual journey that allows them to connect with their ancestors' strength and resilience. It's an opportunity to grieve for the past but also to celebrate survival and resistance. This connection can be a powerful tool in healing generational trauma, offering a sense of closure and understanding.
it's a pilgrimage of healing and reclamation. It's a journey that every African American should consider, not only for themselves but as a tribute to the resilience and strength of their ances
A trip to the Motherland, especially to places like Ouidah, the Door of No Return, and Elmina Castle, is more than tourism.

A journey of Reflection: My Visit to Cape Coast Castle
The Road to Cape Coast: A Scenic Drive from Accra
My journey to Cape Coast started with a three-hour drive from Accra, the bustling capital of Ghana. The journey itself was a blend of anticipation and reflection, as I traversed through the changing landscapes, getting closer to a significant historical landmark.
First Impressions: The Stark Contrast of the Castle
Arriving at Cape Coast Castle, I was immediately struck by the contrasting realities it presented. This fort, with its imposing structure, once served as a central hub during the transatlantic slave trade. The initial sight of the castle, against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean, was both awe-inspiring and somber.
The Depths of History: Touring the Dungeons
The tour of the castle began, and soon I found myself walking through the dungeons. The air was heavy, a poignant reminder of the countless souls who suffered within these walls. The smell of the dungeons was overwhelming, a visceral reminder of the inhuman conditions endured by the enslaved.
The Paradox of Luxury Amidst Suffering
As the tour progressed, I observed the stark contrast between the dungeons and the living quarters of the slave masters. These areas were marked by a certain luxury and comfort, a jarring juxtaposition to the despair just floors below. This disparity highlighted the cruel irony of the slave trade.
A Haunting Revelation: The Church Above the Dungeons
Perhaps the most harrowing part of the tour was the discovery of a church directly above the dungeons. It was a chilling realization to stand in a place of worship, knowing that right beneath my feet, countless individuals were being subjected to unimaginable suffering. This stark contradiction between faith and brutality left a deep impact on me.
The Door of Return: A Symbol of Welcome and Reflection
The tour culminated at the "Door of Return," a symbolic gesture welcoming the descendants of those who were taken
