Thats a great video (coming home to Ghana) , Im African and I feel like people are treated different when do first go to a place bcos they are seen differently until the people there get used to them. I remember the regrets i had when i first got into the states by the way i was treated at school by SOME African Americans. It went on for two yrs. I had to adopt to the environment 4 people to accept me.

I relate to this video. Born and raised in Sydney, Australia...I have direct links to Ghana via my Ghanaian born mother and father. Whilst in Ghana, locals STILL ask me when I intend to return back to home (them meaning to Sydney) and ask me why I am in Ghana? Kinda strange for me, but now it's a lil clearer after watching this viddy...the way people relate to visitors to Ghana. I still love Ghana, despite that! :-) Thanking you for posting this video. Bless, from Nsroma x.

these are your brothers and sisters,just because you were born in africa it doesn't mean some of your relatives were not taken and treaded lower than dogs,white americans can tell where their family came from and they are proud of it so why can't blacks all over the americas do the same.Africans need to educate themselves about slavery it's our history too, instead of kiss white asses when they go to africa..wake up

as much as it is important not to forget about slavery, its about time we move on. Enough of the pointing figures. africans today have their destiny in their own hands... thanks to people like MLK, african americans are in a better place and yet you still hear the whining - how about just doing what you can to add to MLK's work

This old bag's really stirring up the racial hatred. Of course they're not going to leave the honeypot, rich USA! A better way is to recognize the suffering of humanity. How come these videos NEVER say what it's really like on the streets of these African cities and what the problems really are?

I really don't think the answer is for us to leave the United States the country our families built. America's POWER comes from its wealth a wealth earned on the backs of my fathers, I honor them by living and fighting in the country THEY bulit. African roots must be discovered but our home is the Americas.
