inside Elmina

my mom sent me this article. it was interesting to see Elmina Slave Castle published! on our mission trip to Ghana, our first day was spent on an excursion to the Cape Coast, to tour the infamous and oximoronically referenced, Slave Castle.
it was hard to be there. it did seem like a Castle, but when you process the stories told on the tour of all the depravity and abuse, it was difficult to even be there. i can't believe we actually got to tour it!


'slave exit to waiting boats'

point of no return

i even did a piece on Elmina
