@Pharoah Monk If you're not informed about something, seek knowledge. Open a book, read some history, and you'll know that these people create their own machines. They have done that for centuries, before China even thought of coming to Africa. I am tired of ignorant people like you who think that nothing good comes from Africa.

The "Coat of Many Colours" Biblical Jacob gifted to his favourite son, Joseph.

[@amapparatistkwabena]

I went there and was just as thrilled as Roland seems. I purchased several pieces as well. :) The actual kente cloth is a thousand times better than that cheap Chinese print flooding the market on Amazon.

[@darrylhicks3947]

I am visiting Ghana right now and just visited here the other day. I bought some cloth which I plan to take to Accra and have a shirt made with it. I was so excited to visit here. I even got on the loom and made some kente cloth myself. I love coming back “home”

[@lineaalba4035]

Beautiful cloth and designs. Love the one Roland is wearing. The green color is so lush, intense. There are so many color combinations and patterns, truly wonderful to see.

[@armahraymond6077]

Remember, Jacob made for his son, Joseph, a beautiful clothing that got his brothers very jealous. That was long before he was sent to Egypt as a slave. That clothing was named "Coat of Many Colours". Note; Coat in that context described its thick feel. Now, take a good look at " Kente". Perhaps, one authentic, rich and beautiful fabric with great colours and designs the world acknowledged belonged only to Africa for that matter Ghana. What does that tell you, my friend? Very complex, right? I pray you get the revelation !

[@Jansheff2010]

Yeees Kente is awesome and varied. Did you notice all the different varieties in the background. I love it

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 tell em we want honorary citizenship like Greece gave Tom Hanks

[@morrisonjonathan4313]

Please the citizenship is open to everyone who is an African descent living in the diasporas,you can apply it through the Ghana embassy everywhere.

[@conqueror7723]

You don't need an "honorary" citizenship. A FULL citizenship is your right. Just apply for it. Since W. E. B. DuBois and George Padmore did so decades ago, thousands of Black diasporeans have taken Ghanaian citizenship. have

[@titusglavee1443]

Conqueror77 Not true that , thousands of diasporans have Ghana citizenship. There may be hundreds not thousands and besides all those who have it had to go through the usual process and it must be strictly so for everyone who wishes or intends to make Ghana their home . We can’t just be throwing citizenship at folks simply because they intend to come and reside in Ghana .
After all , they can do with a residential permit as most of our kith and kin does with Green Cards before they work hard to qualify for USA passports if they so wish to apply for that. We cannot and should never ever bend the process of application for no body regardless , unless there is a special incentive for a certain specific type of investment that can be proven and validated .

Hahaha! A butterfly thinks he's a bird.
I think you're an American right?
For your information the Brits don't even consider your language as English. You can't judge just one person to say Ghana is a primary English /country.
Even in America they have different accents. In the UK it is the same. ( London accent, Birmingham & Scottish accents).
Lastly let me tell you and a it's fact. Ghana and Nigeria are more educated than America.

Please excuse the segue. For the last 2 days, I've posted the following at other you tube uploads.
As follows:
As of October 9 2019......
Trump has yet to recognize and give tribute to U S citizen Simone Biles, "Named Gymnast 2019 SO Female Athlete of the Year."
nor:
Made any mention of congratulations to the
"2019 U.S. Women's World Winning Championship Team"
🤓
Has trump been too busy tweeting irrelevant falderol to recognize one of the greatest moments in sports history?
Simone Biles (a U S citizen has been (poli-sports) unacknowledged/overlooked as far as her great status as "The Most Decorated Gymnast in Championship History."
Point being trump has given recognition to several (white) athletes at the white house. So what's up?
No honoring Simone Biles (and team) via trump?
I was hoping he'd make a move before 2020.
↕
Pass the info on.
These women should be poli-Media recognized.
To do less is (another) slight on the great contributions women launch into our current society.
(If one has overlooked any tweets. oval house mention or lawn press conference moments.......... see unintentional faux pas.
Please do your own search to confirm.)..

This is uncalled for. Clearly the narrator and guide is not that highly educated to be eloquent to do a better translation. He was struggling to express himself in English the best possible way he could and he did well.

C'mon give him a break, he's not a white person. Some of u ghanaians don't understand that not been able to speak English does not mean anything.
