West Africa was worst hit by slavery. The Cape Coast castle is a grim reminder of a horrific past. The dark dungeons where slaves lived among defecation, or the coffin ships (in which slaves were packed like sardines) that carried slaves far away from Africa was inhumane. The slaves had to lie down for the entire journey. In no trade even of the worst kind, did so many people die. It was a dirty war on these people. As we witness the door of no return for a slave, we are relieved that slavery is abolished and will never return.
