Description | Centuries ago, from Elmina Castle, Cape Coast, many of our African kinfolk were forced aboard slave-ships. The slave-ships, which were mostly owned and operated by Jewish slave-traders, transported their human cargo to the Americas and elsewhere for financial gain and profit. It’s
reported that more than a hundred and fifty million Africans were shipped out of the Motherland alone. For these once free men and women of African origin, their lives were to be subjected to the cruelty of slavery. Of course, the number of deaths, which occurred during their transatlantic voyage, cannot be discarded. It’s estimated that millions of Africans saw their lives become one with the mighty waters of the ocean. During the horrific passage, those who fell ill to an incurable ailment were immediately hurled off the ship. This action was taken to prevent the other passengers from being contaminated. Mind you, the Jewish slave-traders were most determined to maximize their profit by minimizing any loss. Hence, the many sick who were hurled overboard into the very heart of the ocean. |
