In 2021, Ghana grew 1 million tons of cocoa. But it exported most of that to Europe and North America, where it was turned into chocolate. And the big bucks are in chocolate. Trapped in a trade relationship with Europe and struggling to process chocolate itself, Ghana sees little of the industry's profits. So as chocolate companies rake in billions, cocoa farmers struggle to make a living income. We went to Ghana to see the impact on farmers and learn how local entrepreneurs are trying to keep chocolate dollars inside their country.

"Buck and the Preacher" is a 1972 Western film directed by and starring Sidney Poitier. The movie also features Harry Belafonte and Ruby Dee. It follows the story of Buck, a wagon master, and a con man preacher as they lead a group of former slaves to settle in the West while facing various challenges, including racist bounty hunters. The film is notable for its portrayal of African American characters in the Wild West genre, which was rare at the time of its release. It's considered a classic within the genre and for its historical significance.

CBS News traveled across Ghana's remote cocoa belt and found children working on small subsistence farms that supply U.S. chocolate giant Mars. Foreign correspondent Debora Patta reports.

This angered the British and so they sought a commodity that the Chinese would be forced to buy. China did not covet any goods that the West had except one: Opium.
