    From Texas to Ghana: A Journey Through History
    🔹 Welcome to our latest adventure! A group of friends from Texas embarks on a life-changing journey to the heart of Ghana, unearthing the profound historical and cultural riches this beautiful country has to offer. Join us as we traverse time and emotions in this incredible travel series.
    🔹 stop 1: The Legacy of Cape Coast Castle 🏰
    Our first stop is the Cape Coast Castle, a pivotal site in world history. We explore its dungeons and walk through the "Door of No Return," deeply moved by the stories and spirits that echo through these walls. Experience with us the powerful emotions and the poignant reminders of resilience and hope.
    🔹 stop 2: Echoes of Elmina - Unveiling Centuries 🌅
    Next, we visit Elmina Castle, the oldest European-built structure in sub-Saharan Africa. Our tour takes us through its storied past, highlighting the profound impact of the transatlantic slave trade. The beauty of the coast contrasts starkly with the haunting history of this fortress.
    🔹 stop 3: The Last Bath at Asin Manso - A Tribute to Ancestors 💧
    we journey to the historic site of Asin Manso, known for the "Last Bath." Here, we delve into the emotional and historical significance of this location where enslaved Africans had their last bath before their harrowing journey. It's a place of reflection, remembrance, and reverence.
    🔹 Throughout the journey, we immerse ourselves in the vibrant Ghanaian culture, from the bustling markets to the rhythms of traditional music. We connect with locals, share stories, and learn about the enduring spirit of Ghana.

    The first time I went to the motherland, Ghana with my Ghanain girlfriend in 2016 we visited Holocaust dandeon castles in Cape and elmina. I was very angry , sad , I cried like a baby 😭 it was a worse day in my life
    6 months later I brought my grandparents, My parents, 2 uncles, my 2 siblings and 4 friends. Ever since then, our life has changed. Me and my Ghanain wife are building in the central region and Aburi, my parents also purchased 10 acres in Winnebago to Cape Coast road, my uncle also has just started building. Two of my friends also got land in Asebu.

      There is no place like home. Regardless of the years that have elapsed, you are never genuinely accepted as a black persons any where else in the world except in Africa. The real home for black peoples is Africa. God bless our homeland Ghana 🇬🇭 and Africa. We belong to Africa. Let’s make it our home and build it to be what we want.

      I understand cuz you understood here started our misery. My first trip was to Senegal to Goree Island where i totally lost it and fell apart. It was a bad day for me as well. But afterwards i went and Goree was a beautiful lsland with a horrible history. Today, it's beautiful in an eerie way.

I love see diasporans come to Ghana every year. *Thank you so so much* for taking the time to film all this and post it on youtube just so that a lot of us that live in the diaspora can watch this even tho we can't make that trip to ghana yet. I *really* appreciate it Dentaa. I love this channel. Thanks again. ❤💛💚 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭

    DENTAA i wish you can connect with Queen Afua again to bring LaurenLondon and especially Nipseys mom Angelique to visit. I really wish nipsey granny Margaret and nipsey mom visited together but gran Margaret passed last year. I have no doubt Nispeys mom angelique will love it. It really sits on my heart for her to visit.

    @ Dentaa, our ancestors were not slaves on their own land when they were captured. They were enslaved so always remember to inform your audience the distinction between slaves and enslaved. Thank you. Peace and love

    you may want to add a traditional cultural group that can sing live in those heart touching spots ..... in ways to capture the melancholic symbol of what the ancestors felt at that time. Music is powerful.

    In the interest of education, and the prolonged lack of awareness of we ourselves together with our diaspora, let's not flatten "Africa". They are not getting "African" names, they are getting "Ghanaian African" names. Names in most of Africa are rooted to particular languages and ethnicities. A Kenyan would have no idea what a Ghanaian name means generally speaking. Also, the religions are not "the same". Santeria is particularly an offshoot of Yoruba (Nigerian) orthodox traditional religion. I imagine the Ghanaian religion while being similar in terms of nativist practices is a different religion. For comparison, Islam, Judaism and Christianity are all Abrahamic religions with Abraham/Ibrahim as the first prophet, but ultimately all three have very different cultures and applications.

    This year of return has made life difficult for the native Ghanaians,prices of foodstuffs and other essential commodities have skyrocketed
    A bottle of beer is now priced 3 times the daily minimum wage of Cedis 12
    A bottle of beer is now Cedis 25 compared to Cedis 6 in 2018.
    Most of you guys come here for like 10 days and buy everything at any price and automatically have those prices fixed.

    I feel all African America need to visit the motherland to get the facts with regards to slavery and not to only the little portion of what they are taught in state feeling like their brothers in Africa betrayed them. I am student of history and currently live in State and each day i meet my African Americans i know they are being brainwashed to feel hatred to their brothers on the other side. There are more opportunities and confort for our fellow American brothers specially those on retirement and those with enough resources to enjoy the rest of their lives in the motherland considering the raciasm level and other form of unfair treatment meted to some blacks due to our colour background.

    ODANA. Unless you believe in reincarnation, talking about "walking through" the door of return is nonsense.
