You would think after their painful history in America they would be paralyzed with fear,hate,self doubt,negativity,self pity and all the other negative isms, but look at them,clearly the best we of African descent have ever been(and it is not about their accent or looks). They fill me with so much hope and a very strong sense of victory. They were finally invited back to their roots and many of them (by the thousands)have made that glorious pilgrimage. Regardless of which country in Africa they visit I believe they will find that they are loved. Akwaaba.
Great, then those who overcharge them because they are not known natives, should stop overcharging them. Let's not trade one manner of abuse for another. Peace
It’s a great joy to be home, living out my purpose & passion and gaining more from life than I would have done had I stayed in the Western Hemisphere. Journeying through the East side of Africa to the West side wasn’t an easy road but I have no regrets! I trust the divine timing of my life. And more importantly I create a way where there’s no way! In order to live a peaceful and prosperous life right here in Ghana. Africa is home. Awaiting its creators.
Whoever returns to Ghana after years in a developed country will find some things frustrating/annoying but the peace and freedom this nation offers, is simply priceless. This is home indeed. Akwaaba.
Having known Nana Ama for several years now she has grown so much and is one of the brightest people I know. She is the Best of Both Worlds. A true African and African-American in vibration and spirit. She will be one of the Great Sisters that we will talk about years from now who helped bridge the gap between Africans and African-Americans. Dentaa is Great also. I met her at the Black Star International Film Festival in 2018 and she is still pushing forward greatly! Thank you to two beautiful intelligent Sistas!!!
I can relate to her father, whiles I dnt have 11 kids , i have 2kids by African American mother. My daughters were given African names . Im an Ashanti by the way. My father is from Aburi. DENTAA . I have asked my daughters to watch ur video. Very educational. I say thank you.
This was a real down to earth conversation between two sisters in my opinion. I enjoyed every bit of it. "I remember the sound of brooms sweeping the yards early in the mornings" . She hit a spot with that. She also mentioned that Africans in the west had enough and are ready to return to the motherland and that's a fact. Keep doing your thing Odana .
Only those who have the calling should return because they will adapt more quickly and help grow our nation and therefore our economy. They have the ability to help facilitate change with us here Ghana.
The young lady is a strong and wise woman,would not bring attention to herself and won’t stoop low,I hope you prosper on the land of your father and late grand ma,enjoy Ghana to the fullest,stay blessed and safe,thanks for your wisdom.
African Americans all I can say is that they need more cultural and traditional identity of themselves , living in a particular place or answering a certain name is not complete and whole essence of one person's except you know who you are and the stuff your made off , l mean being black is not enough but what is blackness is about , so if the African Americans can pay visits to the mother continent Africa every now and then to get to rediscover the real essence of being black it will save them insult and confusion from white folks, if only they ralise the true worth of being rooted and real identity , together all biacks in the diaspora abroad and in Africa United can cause a mighty earth quake that would send the shivers down the spine to all white people globally
@@emeralddavid5858 you really got It right brother!!!!! Movilize our resources, recruit, train, AND equip our intellectual Warriors. Africa Is a war zone area. We must have a moviment (war of ideas). The political, economical and social battle wiil be wone if we UNITE(some black americans who love Africa as their inherritance and african who love Africa with all their mind, strenght and resources. Africa need Money, policy AND togetherness. We can compete and survive the white folks. Our Situation is not a good one arround the World. We must take and not ignore that much, the Single vision of kwame Nkruma for ghana AND Africa.
The idea of the western countries being rich has been over generalized to seeing everyone from the west as full of money to spend. In Ghana price discrimination and bargaining is how most businesses operate. So if you learn to bargain, then you've got the trick.
We Africans need to stop this business of overcharging foreigners especially the black diaspora. The one thing i like about the Western World is that generally prices are displayed. We lack foresight because as we overcharge individuals, they will likely not return and if they share that price discrimination with their friends and family they also will be hesitant to visit. There are over 200 countries to visit so we should treat visitors with grace. I can understand price tiers at museums, game parks etc but not at markets and shops where you buy necessities.
@@agoogo5026 Terrible. Why penalize someone because you think they are rich. There is a reason a lot of people who practice this all over the world are poor and probably will remain so. Their mentality is weak and focused on the short term versus long term. This horrible way of thinking also permeates some of our leaders on the continent. Focus on selling our resources dirt cheap for short term windfalls instead of having a plan to make sure we practice value addition which is costly but more beneficial in the long run.
I enjoy your channel - but PLEASE - expand the conversations! Systemic racism is serious in Europe, South Asia & Asia - some of us will to move to Ghana, for a moral & ethical life. I'm an historian of Decorative Arts (45+ years), & a published author/journalist. My clients (some are multi-millionaires) & I will invest in the Arts, & promote Ghana, not take away. TALK to us - don't alientate - Accra can become THE Arts capitol of Africa.
Your family members aren't wrong. Because the political leadership, the political structure are such, they shape that atmosphere of refuge, compare to Togo at East of Ghana where since 60 years the same terror regime has made the death, the persecution, the ruin, the violence against the people of Togo, a core principles of governance. Thus, our parents are kill under the bloody rule of the father and as soon as the son, the bloody dictator took over, our lives are ruin, persecute. Thus generations after generations we must be born as Togolese to be condemn unless we spouse the deadly ideology at the root of the bloody tyranny. Therefore Ghana in West Africa is a place of refuge.
It never was about the color of your skin, they know our genetic code is the highest frequency. Everyone knows this but our own, let's hang up the race card and tap into a higher frequency. But first one must evaluate the programming we all have been subjected to.
Great interview, but it's so sad how American women have been mind washed into believing that hoochie shorts, and mini skirts are fashion. I love the fact their are still modest women out there who knows they're beautiful without the exposure. Hearing this young girl talk I can tell she is young.
I love her unfortunately, her tattoos makes me to think twice?? The Bible says ““ ‘Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the Lord.” Leviticus 19:28 NIV.
Hmmmmmm....please stop this stereotypes....because of Tattoo you doubting someone. Read the book of Revelations, Jesus, The Lamb of God had Tattoo. Please read your Bible properly
They came with the bible and said close your eyes let's pray and when the Africans opened their eyes they had the land and African souls the Africans had the bible and christian names.... Reflect on your identity and western religion
@@Okont our African traditions and beliefs do not condone sin... Before colonisers brought the bible we has our own way of life that was good. Yet the turned us away from our own beliefs.
@@chiyenyumba7135 cheating is never a good thing. Killing is never a good thing. Bearing false witness against someone is never a good thing. Maltreating a child or anyone is never a good thing. The list goes on. You don't need a Bible to tell you this, basing off of the angle you're coming from.
