Along the coastlines of Ghana, especially, there are many relics or remnants of what the era of slavery felt like, at least with the many forts and castles that still stand in most of those places.
From the inner perimeters of these locations, stories of the treatments and the deep levels of inhumanities that were meted out to people who were captured forcefully and sold into slavery, have been told and retold for many generations.
Ghana (the Gold Coast, as it used to be known in the period) was a major point of these slavery activities and with that, people were sold for almost nothing, transported to faraway lands and used on plantations to make wealth for their captors, or their buyers (also owners).
While on a tour of the Fort William at Anomabo, in the Central Region, TV's Etsey Atisu spoke with Theresa, the caretaker of the place about the value of slaves and what they were sold for.
