February is Black History Month and as we all know; Black History begins in Africa! We invite you to come to Ghana to explore this country’s
unique links to African-American history. Our Black History Month Tour is coupled with our "Return to the Motherland African Heritage Tour".
Over a period of 400 years millions of Africans were shipped from the dungeons on Ghana’s coast. While many died on the high seas,
those that reached the Americas entered into a life of servitude under the system of chattel slavery that attempted to
dehumanize them and break them physically and spiritually
—And yet, their descendants have survived and flourished.
The forts/dungeons of Ghana stand as contemporary reminders of the horrific history of slavery.
But they also offer the descendants of those millions who passed through the infamous “Doors of No Return” in these houses of horror,
the opportunity to RETURN
—to DEMONSTRATE THE STRENGTH OF THE AFRICAN SPIRIT AND THE RESILENCE OF THE AFRICAN FAMILY.
Date: February 25th - March 8th 2025 (12 Days)
