Here is the rephrased text:
Every one of us has a unique purpose for being here. I am here because I have a deep passion for history.
It is the year 2019, which marks the four hundredth anniversary of the arrival of the first enslaved Africans in America. We find ourselves at a slave castle in Ghana, where Samuel, our tour guide, is responsible for providing tourists with an incredibly authentic experience of the castle's dark history, all while maintaining a cheerful demeanor.
Thank you, Samuel!
The tourists are Samuel's guests, embarking on a journey of self-discovery. However, they are here, standing on the soil that bears the marks of blood and bones, eagerly seeking a selfie. They are interested in purchasing souvenirs from the gift shop. Samuel would never wish to harm the tourists or cause them any distress. Likewise, the tourists would never intend to harm Samuel.
