The elmina castle is an important part of Ghanaians’ history and culture. It is apart of the time when enslaved Africans all around Africa would be imprisoned, sold and shipped off to the Caribbean or Europe as part of the Atlantic Slave Trade Circle. The invasion of the Portuguese, English, French and Dutch started off with trades between the Golds and Diamonds in exchange of their cutleries, cigarettes and handy tools but soon became too greedy and wanted to take over the African soils and introduced Africa to Slave Trade decades of brutality and inhumane abuse.
