    As someone who is from Cape Coast Ghana, I would like to advise all viewers to watch this video with a pinch of salt. The videographer has done an amazing job highlighting poverty and suffering within this Central region town, but has failed to balance his video with the other realities of Cape Coast. The reality in Cape Coast is that some are suffering but others are not. I now understand why others are suffering, but did he highlight why some are doing well when the economy is suffering? Quite a few comments have pointed out the fact that this video, and many others on his page, perpetuates the same old rhetoric about African countries. I would like to provide some feedback; every country has its positives and negatives. When exploring a new area provide the audience with a more balanced, unbiased perspective that truly reflects where you have been.

    • @IndigoTraveller
      @IndigoTraveller  Год назад +42

      Thanks for your feedback. I do appreciate it. However, I don't believe I failed to cover the positives as I covered this in detail at the end of the video and mentioned that there is a lot more to this region and even showing photos of different areas. My goal with these videos is to give a voice to those oppressed. Thanks for watching.
