- These are "A Journalist's Expressions". Art travels to the Cape Coast of Ghana to visit the Castle where the US/Caribbean slave trade began. No fun and games here. It's a serious topic!

Thanks for sharing Art.gives me a better understanding of our ancestry.🙏🏿💔💝I love my people forever.
That touched me. Thanks for sharing this with me and the world.
Art just watching you in between those solid no life walls in midnight darkness only for a few seconds; affected my heartbeat. I began to feel a panic attack overcome my mindset. Our people have suffered in humanely seemingly forever; even now. I had a similar experience when I was in college. My professor planned a trip to New Orleans most noted slave master’s mansions and plantations. In back of each mansion were the slave cabins😥. When I stepped inside one, I immediately felt the strong presence of the many hearts who once resides between those stone walls with dirt floors, no toilets, no kitchen, no bedrooms, no lights. Uncontrollable tears drenched my clothing. Peace and Blessings😇🙏🏽🤗
You brought it home to us and now it is up to us. Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us. My husband and I definitely plan to go.
The video was beautifully done and your words inspired us.
Please please please go visit The Legacy Museum in Montgomery Alabama. You will be glad you did. You will be able to get tickets for The Peace and Justice Museum there and a shuttle will take you there and back. You can’t film anything at The Legacy Museum but you can at The Peace and Justice. Man I tell you it will change your life. We took two days to do The Legacy because you can’t rush it. You will get emotional so be ready.
Art thank you brother ...Thank you..I can feel the souls of our ancestors...The reflection is very very strong.
Hi Art,
I don’t make many comments on CZcams but this video moved my spirit, especially when you were in the holding cell. I love our ancestors and have not forgotten them; we will be restored and renewed with God’s blessing. Thank you for all that you’re doing brother Art, you are making a difference.
My heart was so hurt behind the things they had to go through in life and we still going through it art thanks my brother for shining that light on reality
Simply Beautiful!! I am getting my Passport to Experience The Beauty Of Africa!! Great Job Art!!👍🏼😊💕🙏🏿
I think I can speak for everyone we luv and needed this spiritual adventure from Ghana Art,I felt that and hear that ...
Thank you Art for this experience, This is so enlighten and such a need to know place. I'm a 64 year old grown ass man and this is heart breaking. My heart go out to our people for what they had to go though back then. Our people got the nerve now to complain about what we are going though now which don't compare no where near what our people went though. The waves clashing against the rock there to me simulate the tears of our people crying out. I pray that the spirit of God be with those that never made it out from behind those doors. God Bless you Art for all the videos that you brought back with you to share with us. GOD BLESS YOU AND COUNTRY STYLE.
@Buds of Spring Thank you for your response Buds of Spring. I'm sorry you took it that way but that's not what I'm saying here. I know that our people are still suffering today, But what I'm saying is that we have more rights and freedom now than our ancestors did back then. I'm not blaming our people for what the villains did back then. What I'm saying is some of our people keeping talking about who's holding us down instead of just getting up and stand on our feet as the people that we are. We are strong people that can do anything we put our mind to do. Look how far we've come over the years. We've went from our people running the country to serving in very high places. Again I would never put our people down for anyone or anything. NEVER!! And God Bless you for your comment.
Brother Art thank you for this video it was really home to see you make the return trip that many of our people were never able to make back .
Outstanding Art......
And how some can still say they don't think voting is important
Thank you my brother I felt that! My grandaughter went their when she was 16, it changed her life. She got her LPN at 17 before she finished high school and now her BSN.RN she is 26 single no babies the Pandemic allowed her to buy her won house because of the high demand for Nurses from 9.000 a week to 5.000 a week as a traveling Nurse currently
THE INTRO IS PHENOMENAL, I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL MY FIRST VISIT TO THE AFRICAN CONTINENT 🙏🏿❤️
Thank You Art for sharing such a powerful video! We must never forget what our ancestors went through. We are stronger than we think , royalty is in our veins! We are a free people in a oppressive society.
Been to Ghana twice but haven’t built up the courage yet for the Cap Coast dungeons…the spirit of this place comes through in every video that I’ve seen featuring this place so I know I will have to prepare spiritually and mentally for this journey. Thanks Art for sharing 🇬🇭❤️
Thank you so so much Art Fenell for you taking us back to where our ancestors came from I thank God everyday for my ancestors and what they went through thank you Art and Henry Louis Gates God bless you all i,ve found so many people I didn,t know iwas related to I know I loved them like family now l know for sure

Thank you for this. This broke my heart. I pray I will be able to see this one day. When she closed the door and turned the lights out I wanted to cry. I can’t imagine how our ancestors felt. Thank you for this video ❤️
I wanted to cry when she cut those lights off I can,t imagine what they went through I thank God not just for my people but for all our people
😭😭!!!!! Just the thought of what our ancestors were forced to endure tears my heart into pieces! It's so heartbreaking to see such a death dungeon. Still, I'm grateful to have had an opportunity thanks to you Art Fennel... doing it Country Style. Thank you
🤔🙄🙄🙄🙄🤔????
Wow! Thanks for sharing this! So powerful!
Before I am dead and gone. that is one of my biggest bucket lists in life is to visit that part of Africa. And to be able to see where my ancestors had to walk through to get on those ships . Just watching it is chilling let alone being there will be unbelievable.
Thanks Art!....That was very touching!
Oh My gosh Art, I had no idea. I am so sorry for these poorly treated Human Beings 🙏💝
JO JO IN VT 💕😄
My God my God I'm so emotional watching this. This is hurtful on different levels. This is on my list to do. Thank you for sharing
I can only imagine the magnitude of emotions that overcome you actually being there because I am overcome just watching. Thank you, Art!
Your such a great story teller. Thank you so much for sharing this experience. I just found out that I have Nigerian and West African DNA . I come from strong blood because I couldn't even imagine 🙏🏾 this had my heart feeling some type of way 💔
That was a great closing Art thanks for the memories.
Lord, Lord, Lord, Have Mercy Jesus......🙏
BROTHER ART I NEED A SCREENSHOT OF THE INSCRIPTION THAT YOU WERE RECITING THAT WAS POSTED OUT THERE, THAT WAS AMAZING 💯
Art,Art this right here, is incredible. The struggle continues. 😣🤔😘💯
Touching moment ♥️
May our Ancestors Rest in Perfect Peace. Thank you Art an East Atlanta Fan of all of your Great Podcast's ❤
Getting emotional just watching this video. I would love to visit Ghana someday.
_This was heartfelt._
Very well said Art...Facts!!!
My greatest of grandma came through those same gates as a child and was sold in Virginia to a Scot man with the last name hair. This was between the late 1600 and the mid 1700's. She is the one who started our family 🌲. My great grand father is as black as they come. My folks are more black and brown, with some light brown and red Indian. No white allowed. I would love to see the mother Land just once.
Overwhelming experience and quite the journey😔✌
So happy you're reliving the lives of our ancestors! 😢
This was beautiful, Art. Thanks for sharing
Thank you Art for showcasing Ghana, I took my family to Senegal and we explored Goree Island which served as the slave port in their country.
Rt this video has tears in my eyes thank you for posting my brother God is so good
Even as an adolescent, I've had visions of 1 day visiting Africa. It's like I've always had that strong connection even to this day. Art, Gee Whiz, that footage just made my heart melt with imagination of what our ancestors had to go through.
Great Job Narrating us through that!
No words . I didnt even know the cape castle was still there.
Beautifuly done, Art.
Blessings
Came here after watching your last cook off. This is so deep. You are a very complex man, so good to see.
Bro.Art! Thank You,for this journey. Heartbreaking,but the story must be told.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
So sad how our people suffered
Oh my God bless all amen amen amen amen amen o
A reminder that black people are the strongest of the strong no doubt! Rip to our beloved ancestors!
Wow man I felt that, thank you for this feeling. See you in June
Thank you ❣️
That was some real shit!!!!!
Thank you for sharing..
Thank you so much much Art
This had to be a very moving experience.
Wow thanks for the video see ya in June
This is just captivating! I am truly blessed and this gives me even more reasons to believe that fact. It is also a testament of how resilient our ancestors were. Thanks for sharing this segment with us. I'm suddenly overcome with a strong sense of humility. It has taken me a substantial amount of time to even express these few lines, after viewing this depiction. Great work Art!!!
I love your videos and I love country style too when you coming back to take some more of the country style is translating alright
Safe travels💕🙏🏿💕
BEAUTIFUL
You didn't tell me about this channel Art. 😒 now I'm subscribed 😭❤️🤦♂️
Glad you're back!
We owe so much -
Awesome information Art! Thanks for sharing. 💪🏾
The interesting thing is that, while the slaves were going through this suffering, the slave merchants are worshiping and praying in the church above the dungeons. How ironic
Thanks
I was there for my 50th bday. I also cried there.
History lessons sad memories RIP 🙏 mom and dad
Ok, so youre in Africa waaay before I arrived.😅 Id love to have found this channel years ago.
Thanks my brother
Great upload!
Shameful, so many of our people sold for trinkets and umbrellas, shame, shame, shame. May all who profited in the slave trade reap what they sow.
Whole video got me crying
And you got some people who say this didn't happen to us
This is a touching video
🙏🏿🤲🏿❤️
I just wanna know, where’s some of my Country Style Family at?
Have a safe trip praying for you
Powerful
🌬📢 🥀🖤💚
Ok be safe amen amen amen amen
Reparations now, a mighty debt is owed.
I had to sit upright in bed, when the lights went out,., and the door of no return open..Art my DNA inhabit a continent and a country. African & Native American. Life & Land was stolen😪
#CUT THE CHECKS
One question I would ask them is: _"What did we do to you⁉️"_
It’s what our ancestors could do for them, build this country and make them wealthy, as history went on once slaves were freed a lot of slave owners lost that wealth, but nothing compared to what our ancestors lost🥺
Maybe look at this later .it hurts 😓
TEACH!
IM NOT THENRE AND IM OVERWHELMED 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞
😢😢😢
How could individuals be so evil; SMH
Pass the tissue please!!!
Dungeon
I'm Sorry
