This is my 59th bday photo shoot. The most significant photo shoot ever.
OMG.. I have seen the castles and the dungeons and walked the walk our ancestor walked to take their last bath in a lake before shipped to America.. but this moment where I’m standing gave me peace and joy.
Over 400 years ago our ancestors left this place and sold into slavery. This is Ghana West Africa. They were enslaved and forced on a ship …the Atlantic slave trade.. they left through the door of NO RETURN. 🥵🥵🥵. I have been there. (Photos coming) Well the devil didn’t expect us to RETURN but here WE ARE!! HOME SWEET HOME!! If I have never felt like a TRUE QUEEN ..WELL I AM NOW!!
I learned that even on OUR OWN CONTINENT… AFRICA WAS ENSLAVED.. but this very spot and location where I’m standing and seated and the STAR BEHIND ME IS VERY SIGNIFICANT. The Black Star Square is a site for Ghana's Independence Day parade, which falls on 6 March every year. A particularly notable parade was the Golden Jubilee, which was Ghana's 50th anniversary of independence from British colonial rule.
THE BLACK STAR IN the Ghanaian national flag is a symbol for the emancipation of Africa and unity against colonialism.
The black star was adopted from the flag of the Black Star Line, a shipping line incorporated by Marcus Garvey which operated from 1919 to 1922. It became also known as the Black Star of Africa.
Black star line was a mighty fleet of ships that would bring economic power to blacks around the world and transport many of them BACK TO A PROUD AND INDEPENDENT AFRICAN NATION.
