Gorée, la isla de la memoria

Gorée, a small island off the coast of Senegal, stands as a poignant symbol of the transatlantic slave trade's legacy. Each year, it attracts tens of thousands of visitors, including many Afro-descendants from abroad, who engage in commemorative tourism. The island's historical significance and its role in shaping collective memory are central to this phenomenon. This article explores how Gorée has become an emblematic site for reflection on the atrocities of slavery and its enduring impact on global heritage narratives.
