About the Year of Return It has been exactly 400 years since the first black slaves landed in Jamestown Virginia in the US. Ghana initiated the Year of Return to invite all diasporans back home to not only learn more but explore and even invest in the country. Since this initiative began many African Americans have made their way into the country to learn more about their history. The Tourism Ministry outlined numerous activities including the ‘December in Ghana’ events to bring the Year of Return to a fruitful end. The programme includes Afro Nation, Afrochella, Gold Coast Experience, Full Circle festival, Ghana Festival of Light and many others. President Nana Akufo-Addo, on December 17, launched the ‘Beyond the Return: The Birthright’ initiative set to replace the Year of Return. Speaking at a media encounter on December 13, he disclosed the program 'Beyond the Year of Return: The Birthright' has a whole set of outline that aims to continue the mission of bridging the distance between Africans and the diasporans.
