The Vice President of the United States and now Democratic Party presidential nominee was in Ghana in March 2023 as part of her historic tour of some selected African countries. As part of her tour, Kamala Harris visited the Cape Coast Castle, one of the many dungeons used to harbour and transport slaves during the era of the slave trade. There, emotions fled as the US Vice President embarked on a tour of the castle together with her husband, Douglas Emhoff. As they walked down toward the dungeon for women and the "Door of No Return," where slaves were forced onto ships, Kamala was seen again overwhelmed with emotion and wiping her face. She stood there for a moment, hands on her hips, at one point wiping her face again.
