My trip to Goree Island (Senegal)
ABOUT GOREE ISLAND: The island of Gorée lies off the coast of Senegal, opposite Dakar. From the 15th to the 19th century, it was the largest slave-trading centre on the African coast. Ruled in succession by the Portuguese, Dutch, English and French, its architecture is characterized by the contrast between the grim slave-quarters and the elegant houses of the slave traders. Today it continues to serve as a reminder of human exploitation and as a sanctuary for reconciliation. -UNESCO World Heritage Centre http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/26 On the boat ride to the island with Shahar and Azu.
