Many dìed even before passing through this door due to starvation, maltreatment and some committed suicide even before passing through this door, many were forced to trek for days and weeks from the hinterland areas of Africa where they díed on the road, meanwhile some díed at sea, while some reached a faraway land where they were subjected into hard labor. The moment they passed through this door there was no looking back.
You are looking at "The Door òf No Return", Cape Coast Castle, Ghana 🇬🇭.
The name was changed from "D00R 0F N0 RETURN" to "D00R 0F RETURN" to signify the return of the ensĺaved descendents and to acknowledge the history of their ancestors.
Each year, Ghana celebrates Emancipation Day which welcomes people from the African Diaspora back to their homeland.
May the souls of our Ancestor's rest in power! Ase!
