    “We can be assured that in this instance ‘Coromantee’ referred to a sizable Akan presence, granted the foregoing cultural evidence in Jamaica.
    Demographically, an average of 50 percent of the Africans imported to Barbados came from the Gold Coast (Ghana) between 1650 and the 1710s, and a historical aggregate of at least 200,000 Africans came from the Gold Coast (Ghana) -only Jamaica had a higher total of Akan presence in the British Caribbean.”

    Thanks for this vlog. I mainly watch African Americans who have moved or repatriated to Ghana or other parts of Africa. (GoBlack2Africa, Bag People of Gambia, LanceScurv, , Maximum Impact Jay Cameronndm, Woda Maya, and many more). This is my first time seeing a Jamaican vlogger on the Continent. I know Jamaicans/Caribbeans are there but have never seen their narratives.
