      @@patrickfrempong7504 Everywhere is a choice. "African" Americans always talking this ish about Africa acting like they have some connection when the reality "African" Americans are white people in black skin. Zero to do with Africa. They are FULLY assimilated and believe in EVERYTHING white and desire EVERYTHING white. They don't even know what fufu is or jollof most likely. They don't represent a single thing from Africa they represent white colonizers and they don't understand when they go to real Africa as "African" Americans they do the EXACT thing the colonizers, they stay crying about about, did to their ancestors. They have no idea who are what they represent because they are completely lost and have no intention of being anything "African". Shit African countries seem to be following African American culture now these days and they will soon be lost too.
      REAL Africans go everywhere in the world much like chinese. African Americans barely leave a state let alone a country.

    Ghana and the rest of Africa needs investment. Philanthropy is fine but investment makes a much bigger difference. I've been to Ghana and it's a really beautiful place. Kumasi and Accra are outstanding. The beaches, the resorts, just walking downtown you would think you were in New York or Chicago. You feel so safe and like he said - everyone looks like you and you don't feel like an outsider. I'm going back in December to South Africa. I can't wait!!!

      @@tanyabarnes4899 I have to agree. I went to Ghana in November of 2023. The price of the flight was outrageous - not to mention the VISA process - compared to travel to Europe. For example: a flight to Paris, France can be as low as $399.00 round trip. A flight to England is about the same, especially when the airlines do summer specials. They make the flights to Europe cheap but they make that money back by making the flights to Africa very expensive. And the flights are infrequent - we had the hardest time getting a flight that matched our tour. There are flights going to Europe every day - but we had to get a flight that landed two days before our tour started. My flight to Ghana was over $1,000.00. No one is making excuses - if you are paying $2,000 or $3,000 a month in rent or mortgage - which is typical in the U.S.. Gas, electric, water, internet and just the basic Western living expenses it can take years to save enough money to travel to Africa. But a lot of people make the sacrifice - I did. I went with a black American travel tour group - but again - it was expensive. I would do it again and I intend to - I'll be going to South Africa at the end of December. My second time on the continent - I'm really looking forward to it.

    It shouldn't be free for all in the name of investments, we must keep our future generations in mind not to jeopardized their future as well.

I sent the address I was staying at and reminded them that I was only there for 2 days before moving to the Central region. I then received a text message back they sold out and would be in contact when they have in stock. I then travelled to the Central went through 18 police road block of of which ask for my driving licenses held on to them and demanded 550 hgc kept it for 2 hours until I was forced to give him the last 475 ghs I had. I had to thank the lord that I didn't need any petrol to complete my journey. That is also the other part of Ghana. I am now wondering do I stay with the devil I know or change it for another that looks like me?

    Dre's attitude towards the continent is so positive, it draws you in like a jar of honey😂 I live in Canada and many ppl in Africa might not be able to fully relate to what he mention. Let me put it more bluntly so more ppl understand. The concept of white supremacists is a collectivist Western attitude towards other civilizations. Also, it is a European/White obsession to focus on race. In contrast, look at the Ubuntu philosophy for example that focuses on your human-ness first and foremost. There are so many different philosophies of life like this in Africa.

    So SAD that the camera man wasn't flexible enough to zoom out during each segment, so we could see each and every room in its entirety. Thank goodness that the interviewer and BOSS MAN delivered all the info necessary
