Come back home ….our people of Ghana want to celebrate our return to the homeland of our ancestors …whose spirits have cried many tears and has sent the turbulent hurricanes to our shores as a reminder of Mother Africa’s (Alkebulan) continued anger for stealing her children.
August is a wonderful time to travel to Ghana because it is the month of the Chale Wote Festival, which is a cultural arts festival held yearly and is steadily growing. Last year’s attendance was over 30,000 people.
The tour will include a visit to the castles where our ancestors were held as prisoners of war and shipped throughout the Americas and world as chattel for centuries of brutal slavery. Ghana was a major hub for the human trafficking of Africans who were enslaved.
