Walls Whispering in the Dark (Visit to a lLave castle in Ghana)

In this deeply personal and searing episode, I take you with me to the dungeons of Cape Coast Castle in Ghana, one of the primary sites of the transatlantic slave trade. I walk through the suffocating darkness of a chamber built to break the spirits of men labeled “rebellious,” where between 1,200 and 1,500 human beings were packed together in unspeakable conditions. They slept in their feces. They were treated as less than animals. And then, they were shipped to the Americas, where the real horror show began.

This is not just a recounting of historical atrocities. It is a reckoning. As I stood in that space, inhaled the centuries-old grief still trapped in its stone walls, I knew with every fiber of my being: there is no forgiveness. Not for the colonizers who orchestrated it. Not for the systems that continue to profit from it.

What was done to my ancestors, and what is still being done to us, is unforgivable. And if you're still walking this Earth with white skin, you benefit in the aftermath of that dungeon, no matter how rich or poor you are.

This episode is a witness, a refusal to bend to white supremacy.
