Ghana’s Foreign Minister BLASTS South Africa Xenophobia | “We Helped Free You!” | Africa Must UniteAfrica is one continent, but modern divisions often threaten our shared progress and history. In this powerful broadcast, we address recent anti-African sentiments and remind the world of the deep, unbreakable bonds between Ghana and South Africa. 🌍

The discussion dives into the historical sacrifices made by African nations to end apartheid, proving that our freedom is inextricably linked. We explore official data from Ghana's National Identification Authority and reference the legendary words of Nelson Mandela to debunk myths about migration and crime. This is a call for unity, respect, and a return to the spirit of Pan-Africanism. ✊🏾

Key highlights from this video include a look at Nelson Mandela's book, Long Walk to Freedom, where he specifically thanks Ghana, Nigeria, and Tanzania for their leadership in the liberation struggle. You will learn about the diplomatic passports, scholarships, and financial resources provided by nations like Liberia, Senegal, and Ghana when South African activists were declared stateless. 📖

We also address the current climate of xenophobia and why it is vital to treat crime as an individual act rather than a reason to target fellow Africans. As Kwame Nkrumah famously said, the independence of Ghana is meaningless unless it is linked to the total liberation of Africa. This video is a must-watch for anyone who believes in a united and prosperous continent. 🇬🇭🇿🇦

Do you believe African countries today are doing enough to preserve true Pan-African unity?
Should African leaders do more to teach the younger generation about the sacrifices made for South Africa's liberation?

In the Early Modern Period (around 1500-1800), West Central Africa (modern day Angola, the Congos, and Gabon) was home to a variety of different types of cloth and clothing. In this video, we discuss some of the textiles, jewelry, and other adornment that people in this region wore to cover up or show off status, primarily focusing on the kingdoms of Kongo, Ndongo, and to a lesser extent Loango. Join us as we explore some Central African Fashion History! This video is part of Untold Black History III, a collaboration for Black History Month discussing interesting and positive Black history from around the world.
