House of Slaves (Gorée)



The House of Slaves (''Maison des Esclaves'') and its Door of No Return is a museum and memorial to the Atlantic slave trade on Gorée Island, 3 km off the coast of the city of Dakar, Senegal. Its museum, which was opened in 1962 and curated until his death in 2009 by Boubacar Joseph Ndiaye, is said to memorialise the final exit point of the slaves from Africa. Historians differ on how many African slaves were actually held in this building, as well as the relative importance of Gorée Island as a point on the Atlantic Slave Trade,〔("Tiny island weathers storm of controversy" ). CNN Interactive, Andy Walton. 2005. Note: the link is to a reprint on the Historian's discussion list that was a prime source for the article's quotes.〕 visitors from Africa, Europe, and the Americas continue to make it an important place to remember the human toll of African slavery.〔("Through the Door of No Return" ), ''TIMEeurope'', June 27, 2004.〕
==Memorial==

The House of Slaves was reconstructed and opened as a museum in 1962 largely through the work of Boubacar Joseph Ndiaye (1922 – 2009). He was an advocate of both the memorial and the belief that slaves were held in the building in great numbers and from here transported directly to the Americas.〔 Eventually becoming curator of the Museum, Ndiaye claimed that more than a million slaves passed through the doors of the house. This belief has made the house both a tourist attraction and the site for dozens of state visits by world leaders to Senegal.〔
