“Placed here in memory of the millions of African who
died on the way to Gorée, here in its dungeons, and on the way to the Americas . We
remember the descendants of those most strong who survived. Share the
knowledge, spread the history, and live the dream of
freedom.” - 塞內加爾黑奴囚屋博物館門口紀念碑文。
格雷島〈Gorée Island〉,位於塞內加爾首都達喀爾〈Dakar〉港口東南面2公里,港口每日有數班渡輪往來這個大西洋小島,仿似香港中環 ~ 離島碼頭般熱鬧,很短的航程,在舒適的遊覽船上,來自世界各地不同種族的遊客與非洲人並肩而坐。
