This is "The Door Of No Return", Cape Coast, Ghana 🇬🇭
It was built by the Dutch as the last exit for the enslaved Africans; it was their last glimpse of Africa before being shipped overseas.
The name was changed from "DOOR OF NO RETURN" to "DOOR OF RETURN" to signify the return of the slave's descendants and to acknowledge the history of their ancestors.
Each year, Ghana 🇬🇭 celebrates Emancipation Day which welcomes people from Africans in Diaspora back to their homeland.
History helps us to understand how events in the past made things the way they are today.
