Thank you for all of this information. I would like to see the slave route map coming from Northern Ghana gping through the Volta region endind up at the eastern or central coast. Especially for the Bissa people. Thank you for your commitment to sharing this knowledge.

The facts! Nobody in history is safe from slave culture, yet alone Africa, in which many want to deny and assume they are innocent. Power, economy, and survival was just the way of the world in that time.. and hoping Critical Race Theory includes such facts .

You heard they don’t want to be quoted it’s like our people would say keep quiet the walls have ears. I never understood how an inanimate object can hear, nevertheless it is very clear this business of slavery is to the current and former people the same as breathing- only if the breath stops in them can they be dissociated from the heinous practices. Clearly slavery is not a western invention but rather a continuation of oppression in a different milieu. The irony is that as a result of the continued exploitation of people as slaves resulted in chattel slavery becoming synonymous with a race “ black African race” even though it was practiced by other cultures. Now the stain of slavery is on people whose skin is black irrespective of their ancestors status and or history.
