I can’t believe I’m 30 and herd about this for the first time LITERALLY TODAY!?!?!? HOW DO WE PRETEND THIS DID NOT HAPPEN? The victims deserve to have their story told!
I cried my ancestors have suffered and still suffering I live in Jamaica and I pray one day I will be able to afford a ticket to ghana I need to walk with no shoes in the land of my DNA
What you will experience will change you forever. You will be proud of who you are. You will experience strength to own your history and teach it to others.
ABSOLUTELY! Ghana is very SPIRITUAL. I was there last summer, in fact, this brotha was my tour guide. Although my ancestry is Nigeria, my wife is Jamacain, and hers is Ghanaian. I've been to six countries in Africa, and Ghana was the most spiritual for me. Get with a group that travels there. It's not as expensive as you may think. GO FOR IT.
Wow!! I can't stop crying watching this video. As a Social Studies teacher, I can see why American schools don't want us the teach the truth. It's a lot to bear but the truth shall set us free.
The schools, certain black people don't. They want us to believe it was all white people when it was others who sold my ancestors out. They don't want us to know other Black people owned slaves.
It's very hard to swallow.. I literally feel ashamed of being white and European.. I can't understand how humans can treat other humans in such a cruel, inhuman way.. 😢 I must visit Ghana and I think everyone should see by their eyes what cruelty people are capable of and what they did for hundreds of years..
Don't be embarrassed. African kingdoms along the coast fraught and conquered neighboring tribes/ kingdoms and took slaves. Slavery was an important part of the west African kingdoms culture for millenia. That's why Europeans went there as there were so many slaves. Africans traded slaves for guns gunpowder and other European goods and that enriched their kingdom. African kingdoms were very much partners in the slave trade. Europeans didn't charge into Africa and round of hundreds of free peaceful Africans and enslave them, they were already slaves in Africa ad were sold to Europeans at places like this. Actually in the 1830s, the British, who had banned slavery, sent ships to the African kingdoms to persuade them to stop slavery however the African kingdoms refused as it was an important source of wealth for them. In the 1850s the British sent ships to blockade African ports to force them to stop selling slaves. This whole history has been warped and not understood, and so now, 200 years later white people are apologizing to Africans for buying the slaves that the Africans sold to us.
I was filled with rage when I left the male dungeon. Rage. Anger. Hurt. Frustration. The truth has been hidden from us. This truth. Thank you for sharing this with the world.
The rage you felt was part of the journey of discovery and recovery. This is our history. The unimaginable human cruelty. But we continue to live and find ways of healing and moving forward.
Muslims killed 15 million African slaves did you know that 🤔 African people sold more of their own people than the rest of the world put together There is more slaves in Africa now than there ever has been If it wasn't for the UK there would still be African slaves everywhere Did you know this 🤔 Men, women, and children were captured to such a devastating extent that vast numbers of sea coast towns were abandoned. According to Robert Davis, between 1 million and 1.25 million Europeans were captured by Barbary pirates and sold as slaves in North Africa and Ottoman Empire between the 15th and 19th centuries.
I appreciate you posting this. I can feel your shocked sadness and the history also grounding you . I could see how overwhelmed you were. I wanna go and I know I’m gonna cry too.
Just like most Africans I feel vengeful. Not just because of all this but the disregard and treatment we still get today after all this. No remorse shown and we still get it the worst.
Very informative video but I'm sorry I can't stop crying I don't want to hear any more right now but I appreciate you taking the effort to make the video I still gave you a thumbs up thank you
I went to Cape Coast Castle and cried. I also went to Elmina the same day. It was a year after that trip I found out where my paternal ancestors came from.
@@472t I can confirm your colleague's information. The smell is still strong in spite of Centuries of cleaning and disinfection. You can actually feel the spirits of our ancestors there; the Dungeons are very heavy with ancestral presence.
I remembered the first Emancipation day held in Ghana 1998 to re-affirm its status as the Gateway to the African Homeland of Diasporans.. At that time i was in High School and we went to Elimena slave Dungeon. I bet you , you will be humbled and your life not gonna be the same. I think everyone should be there whether you are black ,white ,yellow.😪😪🥲🥲
They are only telling part of the truth They don't want you to know they have them worse to their own people than the rest of the world put together And they are still doing it today
Human cruelty is sickening. The cruelty and the atrocities suffered in the slave dungeons were only the beginning of what they would suffer for centuries. Human cruelty is sickening, and for such cruelty to continue for centuries, it beats the imagination. And yet here we are today, still living amongst some people for who cruelty is likes port. The grace and wisdom needed not only to endure, but overcome covert and overt racism must be the same grace and wisdom our ancestors exhibited. When you have no place to call home, and you never know when and where you will be sold and what awaited you, you develop the survival grace just to stay alive. And today, with all the human rights and safeguarding, there are young boys and girls suffering untold cruelty at the hands of people who should know better. This is the world we live in. Our hearts, ears and eyes should be open to what is happening on our streets, towns and cities. for such cruelty to continue for centuries beats the imagination. And yet here we are today, still living amongst some people for who cruelty is like a sport. The grace and wisdom needed not only to endure but overcome covert and overt racism must be the same grace and wisdom our ancestors exhibited. When you have no place to call home, and you never know when and where you will be sold next and what awaited you, you develop the survival grace just to stay alive.

Wow! Melody, I just finished watching this. Thank you for bringing this important yet heartbreaking piece of our ancestors' history to light. You did an amazing job here!!! Looking forward to more. Amazing and real content. Best wishes! God bless you. 🙏❤
I have been there myself both cape coast and elmina castles with my Finland's friends some years back and guess what...both the whites and we ourselves couldn't stop crying for some time. All because of the the treatments our ancestors went through, the maltreatment and a whole lot 😂😂 but can't continue wish you can there yourself one day to witness everything yourself. May God bless Africans❤
I can say for fact ,they did suffered more than what we are imagining today,, how I wish there were videos by then to see the exact pains and torture these innocent people were going through 😢
Right now the colonizer have the most gold in storage.but they don't have a gold mine.and it were all stolen reparation is a must.slavery is the first and the biggest holocaust
I have seen many videos on this, and I have a lot of knowledge on slavery and the trade. But one thing I have researched is a lot on the African Traders and merchants , the interesting thing is the Castle was build with the permission of the African coastal rulers. So the activities in the fort was known by the coastal town people. That means the coastal people allowed this to happen, I just think we should think about that.
The castle was initially build for trading and later converted to dungeons...stop putting blames now n look into the future...now is mental slavery not in chains
Otu, leave them alone. Some are trolls and bots send by western countries to with pre made comments to confused us. My elder brothers didn't go to school because my great grandfather was against it. He said it was another tactic of the whiteman to enslave us. My great grandfather died when I was a baby. It's a long story. In short, we have family members that were taken into slavery. We feel the hurt as if it happened yesterday. Only ignorant people will come and tell me what their fellow African did to them during the slave trade. My great great great uncle was shot down my our own village man, by the order of the whiteman. He had no choice. Man! I'm hurt.
The ethnic nations that surround the castes were the ones who had the !pat of their people's taken as captices. It is not as if they collided with the European to sell their own people. They were the main victims.
Sub sahran slave trade was also happening by Arab pagans and Arab Jews, but when prophet Mohammed came he abolished slavery preached Muslim to free all the slaves. May Allah peace and blessings be upon him.
As an African i picture myself alive during this era of terror,,i see myself myself in this dark dungeon with the tiny little windows 😢!!!This is horrifying 💔 😢!!why would they do this injustice to Africans
@@Isabelleevelyn1 I agree. The so call lord was a part of it. Religion was a joke when I was a kid, is a joke now I am an adult and will still be a joke when I leave this land. Think about it, the church was built on top of the dungeon. Religion was use to enslave people.

@@jussvlog Just a suggestion for you could you try putting your vlog on fb too. Facebook is the largest social media platform in the world. And since you are doing content creation you need to approach it as business. You have a growing catalog just export your videos over there and watch it grow in views. And you can also use other social media platform like IG, FB or Twitter to send traffic to your UA-cam. But please don't be sleeping on those fb ads.
@@jussvlog I see your UA-cam having the potential to achieving over million views by December if you market it well and stay consistent. Because there is not alot of youtubers in Cape Coast so you already have an advantage. You should checkout Jasmine Ama or natural Ghana girl on UA-cam alot of gold nuggets...
1 Million by Dec! That’s a HUGE prayer and dream🤗🤗🙌🏾 I see a million but didn’t see it that soon. As always thanks for your feedback, everything you have said is right in alignment with what our thoughts have been🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
@@aicirtapsmmas82 it wasn't allowed, force was used to take over... same was done in the United States. Aboriginal Indian were massacred and pushed out and their lands taken over, same was done in Canada
Thanks my sister for your video and your experience lots of our history have been hidden from us my hope is all black people should have the opportunity to visit all i can says has long you’re a black man you’re an African does matter where you from you’re an African
What a horrible thing, it is so sad to believe this is how horrible the whites treated, my family was from Arkansas and very prejudice i brought a friend home from school that was Black and my mom wouldn’t let us in the house… i still remember it. And am ashamed, so people are not born prejudice it is taught, and is so very wrong and sad
My question is what kind of sermon did they preach in the church? Or what kind of Bible did they use? Seeing the church sitting on the male dungeons is very appalling.
Its such a painful thought of what what happening to our kins of Africa. Just unexplainable how cruel the white man would do this to fellow human... can this be revisited and the truth be told..
My God My God My God, how can Human-Beings treat other Human-Beings like that, Just how, and why, for what reason? That's why I couldn't finished the tour, when my Husband took me there, I just got sick. Very weak, lightheaded, tired, and exhausted. I just couldn't go on another step, we had to Stop 🛑 with the touring. I Promised myself that I'll never returned back on a tour like that again. Jesusssssssss Christ have Mercy on such People 🙏
My full respect for Mother Africa the land of Anciente Culture survive (The gold cuntinues to destroy many cultures around the world )Africans still suffer the invasion and insanity of people who looks only for treasure instead we need more projects to support Africa as a self sufficient continent education health agriculture tecnology etc ...we need to love each other and hold hands to build a better future Im from the Amazon jungle Brasil and the gold continues to destroy the indigenous people given no future for them and loosing their culture but for the one´s who buy illegal gold stay blind no words to say .

Great video ❤ but black peoples never learned, i praises my ancestors and I’m thankful and grateful to them so that i can be here Today European make them see hell on EARTH 😢sad
All the worst that happened to Africa was caused by Africans ,as An African from Algeria this so hurtful to know a sad story and how humans being are treated to the worst things that the mind can't imagine,Rest in peace to all the souls lost ,Allah will get back what's taken from you ,Peace
Wow blame the victims! Since you are from Algeria, I guess of Arab descent, very familiar with the Arab slave trade of black Africans, and what’s happening today in Libya, another Arab state of the Maghreb. However, I applaud you from calling yourself African, North Africans Arab states usually prefer to not associate with the rest of the continent, but more with southern Europe and the Middle East.
@@c-shn gtfoh! I'm Amazigh piatch! You don't tell me where I'm from you ignorant go read some history before opening your mouth ,maybe you're Arab bs from middle East
Omg!! This is absolutely barbaric and i have never heard of it before, i started to see posts come up on fb and i researched it and this is where i ended up watching the most heartbreaking unthinkable evil hanious events of the past, im sick to my stomach 😢😢😢
Isaiah 30 vs 1 - 4 Woe to the obstinate Children declares the Lord ,to those who carry out plansthat are not mine , forming an anlliance , but not by my Spirit, heaping sin upon sin
Sorry but there’s a lot of erroneous and missing history being told here. There are several accurate documentaries on you tube if you want the true history of this place. Still very sad what happened here.
If you go there. And you are not crying. Then you're not a humanbeing. I made a video yesterday about slavery, cried for 10 mins after I finished the video.
It is important that we discuss the history of such buildings. However no mention of who actually ended slavery (British colonial government). Just the usual over simplistic trope of ‘bad’ Europeans and ‘good’ indigenous Africans. It could be argued that British rule, while not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, did shield many of the people from the worst excesses of tyrannical chiefs, famine, disease, slavey and human sacrifice. Note the records of how few British police and military there actually were present during the colonial period. They could not have maintained control for such an extended period without consent from local people.
Trying to distort history. There was a lot of resistance but Africans had no guns. 1 person with a gun can control 100 people with no guns. The era of skewing history to maintain your diabolical agenda is far gone. No mainstream media control of information anymore
@@isaacboateng1789 you are one of those people who see yourself as inferior to the whiteman and see everything about them as better. Were they not holding so-called church services when they were holding enslaved people on the lower level? Abolishing the slave trade became hip so they all jumped on the bandwagon after they have dehumanized human beings and the effect of which is still present
@@kanti8942 what I know is they help save lives through the abolishment of human sacrifices which was normal in those days. Come to think of it did I say I support white supremacy or what? The church helped in the abolishment of slave trade which is fact
Isaac I think you should make a difference when you mention the Church. The Roman Catholic Church actually approved the enslavement of Africans on the ground the latter didn't have souls and were therefore comparable to animals. Later on that same organisation would play a major role in the implementation and perpetuation of colonialism. Much of the wealth the Roman Catholic Church boasts of is a proceed of these double diabolical enterprises perpetrated by Europeans against aboriginal peoples across the world.

You do understand that EVERY race has been enslaved and abused at some point in history correct? Including millions of whites and Europeans.

many europeans were in a form of slavery for many centuries, blacks complain too much

@@jussvlog Just a suggestion for you could you try putting your vlog on fb too. Facebook is the largest social media platform in the world. And since you are doing content creation you need to approach it as business.
You have a growing catalog just export your videos over there and watch it grow in views. And you can also use other social media platform like IG, FB or Twitter to send traffic to your UA-cam. But please don't be sleeping on those fb ads.
@@jussvlog I see your UA-cam having the potential to achieving over million views by December if you market it well and stay consistent. Because there is not alot of youtubers in Cape Coast so you already have an advantage. You should checkout Jasmine Ama or natural Ghana girl on UA-cam alot of gold nuggets...
1 Million by Dec! That’s a HUGE prayer and dream🤗🤗🙌🏾 I see a million but didn’t see it that soon. As always thanks for your feedback, everything you have said is right in alignment with what our thoughts have been🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I have already shared on FB and I have also created a FB page
I real feel sad hearing this story God bless our ancêtres énergie Ghana 🇬🇭 France 🇫🇷 aweke time now we have to love one and other much love ✌️💯❤️👸🤴
😢 I feel crying
Why did The Continent allow the Europeans to build that fortress on their land?
@@aicirtapsmmas82 it wasn't allowed, force was used to take over... same was done in the United States. Aboriginal Indian were massacred and pushed out and their lands taken over, same was done in Canada
Thanks my sister for your video and your experience lots of our history have been hidden from us my hope is all black people should have the opportunity to visit all i can says has long you’re a black man you’re an African does matter where you from you’re an African
What a horrible thing, it is so sad to believe this is how horrible the whites treated, my family was from Arkansas and very prejudice i brought a friend home from school that was Black and my mom wouldn’t let us in the house… i still remember it.
And am ashamed, so people are not born prejudice it is taught, and is so very wrong and sad
My question is what kind of sermon did they preach in the church? Or what kind of Bible did they use? Seeing the church sitting on the male dungeons is very appalling.
Sadly the same Bibles that are sold today
Goosebumps 😰
this really hurts
POWERFUL!!!!! They stole everything from us!!!!! Pure evil!!!!😭😭😭😭😭😭
thank you
Its such a painful thought of what what happening to our kins of Africa. Just unexplainable how cruel the white man would do this to fellow human... can this be revisited and the truth be told..
So you think a boat load of white guys showed up and just stole all these folks?
My God My God My God, how can Human-Beings treat other Human-Beings like that, Just how, and why, for what reason? That's why I couldn't finished the tour, when my Husband took me there, I just got sick. Very weak, lightheaded, tired, and exhausted. I just couldn't go on another step, we had to Stop 🛑 with the touring. I Promised myself that I'll never returned back on a tour like that again. Jesusssssssss Christ have Mercy on such People 🙏
The Europeans have always been so inhuman.
Kudos to this knowledgeable man.
The lady speaks so artificially though.
I just subscribe hmmm very sad 😭😭
My full respect for Mother Africa the land of Anciente Culture survive (The gold cuntinues to destroy many cultures around the world )Africans still suffer the invasion and insanity of people who looks only for treasure instead we need more projects to support Africa as a self sufficient continent education health agriculture tecnology etc ...we need to love each other and hold hands to build a better future Im from the Amazon jungle Brasil and the gold continues to destroy the indigenous people given no future for them and loosing their culture but for the one´s who buy illegal gold stay blind no words to say .
Now these people lectures others on morality
The food hatch and rhe hole in the door they exolained remi ds me of the prisons in these days where there is a hatch for people to have their food and this place seems like it is where the prison hatch originated.

the sickness in my heart i feel is indescribable
Great video ❤
but black peoples never learned, i praises my ancestors and I’m thankful and grateful to them so that i can be here Today European make them see hell on EARTH 😢sad
All the worst that happened to Africa was caused by Africans ,as An African from Algeria this so hurtful to know a sad story and how humans being are treated to the worst things that the mind can't imagine,Rest in peace to all the souls lost ,Allah will get back what's taken from you ,Peace
None of those castles were occupied or administered by Afrikans.
They are European structures for their benefit
Hmm africa is heavenly continent
Wow blame the victims! Since you are from Algeria, I guess of Arab descent, very familiar with the Arab slave trade of black Africans, and what’s happening today in Libya, another Arab state of the Maghreb. However, I applaud you from calling yourself African, North Africans Arab states usually prefer to not associate with the rest of the continent, but more with southern Europe and the Middle East.
@@c-shn gtfoh! I'm Amazigh piatch! You don't tell me where I'm from you ignorant go read some history before opening your mouth ,maybe you're Arab bs from middle East
Omg!! This is absolutely barbaric and i have never heard of it before, i started to see posts come up on fb and i researched it and this is where i ended up watching the most heartbreaking unthinkable evil hanious events of the past, im sick to my stomach 😢😢😢
may their souls rest in peace............*BASE DROP* BEW WEEW WOO!
I came here to inquire some information on how African countries/ tribes dealt with enslavement on their continent.
interisting to watch but this interupting loud music was quite anoying
Sorry, will improve my next documentary, thanks for watching
Am teary
Let my people go and bring my people back!
Ok....I knew some money was going to be exchanged. Respect the playa
It broke my heart to see how the white man do black people
There’s always Philip Kweku in every society.
Beautiful Ladyyy 🫶🏾
Thank you🤗
Oh africa i love its so sad ❤❤❤❤❤
Isaiah 30 vs 1 - 4 Woe to the obstinate Children declares the Lord ,to those who carry out plansthat are not mine , forming an anlliance , but not by my Spirit, heaping sin upon sin
Cruelty to his fellow man!
De man has really done well
Sorry but there’s a lot of erroneous and missing history being told here. There are several accurate documentaries on you tube if you want the true history of this place. Still very sad what happened here.
Bro how can I watch some please any link to see more
They don't teach us nothing a bout that in school in the west
If you go there. And you are not crying. Then you're not a humanbeing. I made a video yesterday about slavery, cried for 10 mins after I finished the video.
It is important that we discuss the history of such buildings. However no mention of who actually ended slavery (British colonial government). Just the usual over simplistic trope of ‘bad’ Europeans and ‘good’ indigenous Africans. It could be argued that British rule, while not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, did shield many of the people from the worst excesses of tyrannical chiefs, famine, disease, slavey and human sacrifice. Note the records of how few British police and military there actually were present during the colonial period. They could not have maintained control for such an extended period without consent from local people.
Trying to distort history. There was a lot of resistance but Africans had no guns. 1 person with a gun can control 100 people with no guns. The era of skewing history to maintain your diabolical agenda is far gone. No mainstream media control of information anymore
No one wants to revisit the past and make restitution and reparation
They are eager to point out to the church but forget the role played by the church in the abolishment of slave trade
I guess the church did great then......after how long.......interesting
@@chairmankay after they saw what was happening in the dungeon
@@isaacboateng1789 you are one of those people who see yourself as inferior to the whiteman and see everything about them as better. Were they not holding so-called church services when they were holding enslaved people on the lower level? Abolishing the slave trade became hip so they all jumped on the bandwagon after they have dehumanized human beings and the effect of which is still present
@@kanti8942 what I know is they help save lives through the abolishment of human sacrifices which was normal in those days. Come to think of it did I say I support white supremacy or what? The church helped in the abolishment of slave trade which is fact
Isaac I think you should make a difference when you mention the Church. The Roman Catholic Church actually approved the enslavement of Africans on the ground the latter didn't have souls and were therefore comparable to animals. Later on that same organisation would play a major role in the implementation and perpetuation of colonialism. Much of the wealth the Roman Catholic Church boasts of is a proceed of these double diabolical enterprises perpetrated by Europeans against aboriginal peoples across the world.
It was built by the British, not just English
