    Ghana Offer to African-Americans & Caribbean people

    Ghana Offers African-Americans & Caribbean people the Right of Return & the Right of Abode in 2019

    I wonder how many will take up the offer?

    Yeh, well, good luck with that. Perhaps a very few will. Ghana isn't exactly Wakanda.

    Next election, vote against EVERY Republican, for EVERY office, at EVERY level. Be patriotic, save the country.

      I don't know but I doubt very many.

      The church my family attended when I was young had may Ghanaian families. They were mostly political refugees from the coupes in the 70's and early 80's. They made up over 1/3 of the congregation. Over the last 40 years they have become quite settled into the community and have raised their children and grandchildren to be Americans. Although, they maintain much of their cultural heritage I think very few are interested in returning.

        Perhaps it could be, if they went there to make it that way.

          Calvary Presbyterian Church, located in Alexandria, VA, is experiential, diverse, engages head and heart, authentic, connects us to the Holy Spirit.

              It might not be a bad move. They have a liberal government with a human-rights lawyer as president. The press appears to be free of restrictions, and the economy could get pretty interesting with the recent development of oil fields.

                Three successful elections and transfers of power. The Ghanaians might get used to that.
