‘Year of Return’ Is A Game-Changer – Steve Harvey
Veteran American comedian and actor Steve Harvey has commended Ghana’s President Akufo-Addo for the ‘Year of Return’ initiative.
According to the radio personality, the year of return has brought a lot of African–Americans to Ghana to witness on firsthand basis the struggles blacks went through during the slave trade era.
Speaking to Francis Abban on the Morning Star Thursday, the Comedian expressed gratitude to the president for the move.
“We have been once called Negros, blacks and finally to African–Americans and this has been our journey so far,” he said.
He said he will use all platforms available to him to enlighten Blacks about Ghana’s significance in the dark history of the slave trade and urge all to travel to Ghana.
“We would never be the same after the year the president opened the year of return”.
“My mission now is to get tourism board of Ghana, South Africa and Botswana to work as a unit to bring more African-Americans first to Ghana,” he added.
He noted a visit to the slave Castle will make African-Americans unravel the full truth of their history and appreciate the struggles of their grandparents.
