#đ Trip Highlights:
"Join us on a profound journey through Ghana with two esteemed Caribbean delegates, Ronald Hugh Small and the Honorable Rosalea Hamilton. In this enlightening series, we explore the deep historical and cultural connections between the Caribbean and Africa, while celebrating the power of diplomacy and shared heritage.
Our adventure begins with an intimate meeting at the residence of former President J. A. Kufuor, where unexpected bonds and mutual acquaintances come to light. We then travel to the solemn and reflective Assin Manso and Donkor Nsuo, The Slave River, a site that resonates with the echoes of a painful past, reminding us of the enduring strength of the human spirit.
The journey continues to the Cape Coast Castle, a haunting reminder of the atrocities of the slave trade, where we pay homage to the resilience of our ancestors. We then experience the vibrant energy of Independence Square and delve into the legacy of W.E.B. Du Bois at his dedicated centre in Accra, celebrating the spirit of Pan-Africanism.
Our trip culminates with an inspiring evening at a networking event organized by the GUBA Diaspora Network, where ideas and cultures converge under the Ghanaian stars.

Hello Dentaa. Please give us the full GUBA diaspora conversation video. I have been waiting đ

You are amazing!
16:50 The Dean, the daughter, and dove,of ghana,DENTAA,,,the lady,who by kind is highlighting our culture,and purifying,as the place to be,,,,,ayekoo,
Thank-you
Lovely and emotional video. However i have a clarification for the tour guide for the rivers statement âHow do you feel knowing your African brothers sold you to slaveryâ. Precolonially, Africa was not a monolith of same people, âbrotherhoodâ was by belonging to the same tribe. Empires went to war with rivals and took captives, Romans enslaved Saxons/Germanic tribes, Germans fought Poles etc but we donât say Europeans enslaved their âbrothersâ, These were all different ethnicities who didnât consider their rivals as brothers.
Why do you always take your profile guest to see only foment President Kuffour ???
Which former president is alive again Al of them dead that's why
For God sake I am certain there is more to ghana than the trans Atlantic slave trade. We need more diverse news about ghana and not just slavery
Black people in diaspora wants a connection with Africa so the slavery sites are the places for them to reconnect first hence slavery will be the major visiting place
+++###In the mean and between time, I hope and pray that every African nation and people of African-descent file lawsuits for reparations from the Royal families and Western nations; most especially the United States of America đșđž every day to the coming again of JESUS CHRIS đ
And thank JESUS CHRIST OUR ONE AND ONLY LORD AND SAVIOR FOR MAKING AFRICA GREAT AGAIN(MAGA).###+++
The information he is asking about how many women and men were taken are all in the BRITISH ARCHIVES.......The MAROONS of JAMAICA and SURINAM originated from KORMANTSE/ABANDZE in the CENTRAL REGION where FORT ARMSTERDAM is located............
Why is KUFFOUR in a wheel chair? what did he do to God?...................................
