You make us so proud to be a Ghanaian. The kente cloth is beautiful and should be worn and displayed for all to see.

It is disingenuous to refer to chiefs in Ghana as kings. There are no kingdoms in Ghana; therefore, there are no kings in Ghana. By the way, when is this kente festival being held and why is it that Ghanaian associations have the knack of inviting some local politician to grace their function? Is this a way of gaining legitimacy?

Martin:

It is true that now, we no longer have kings in Ghana but sub-chiefs, chiefs and paramount chiefs. However, in the past, there were Kingdoms, and therefore, Kings, within our our empires. For example, the great ancient Ghana Empire contained kingdoms including the Asante kingdom, and the Asante King.

But those ancient times have passed and present-day Ghana no longer has "kings". The author of the article makes it clear in paragraph 6 that "In the olden days, [the kentes] were worn by the kings, queens, rich and highly respected people but now everyone can wear [them]". The author is referring to the past, and, therefore, uses the past tense. I cannot find anything disingenuous about that.

This is a disgrace. You are going to host this woman, wine and dine her with the gate fees? Are you that desperate? For what?.

Ghanaian groups almost never organize education fests or anything that benefits children in the diaspora, besides the greed driven kente dance and festivals.Nations are built knowledge,not just culture that are pushed hard always into the throats of hosts nations. Our culture and practices will get apprecaited only when we start to much the Indians,chinese and other races in the classrooms.Africans needs economic assimilation first!
