He highlighted the country’s remarkable growth, the warmth of its people, and the transformation from a painful past into a beacon of healing and empowerment.
“This is my second time in Ghana. I am amazed at its growth. It’s beautiful people. It’s beautiful daughters and the expansion of ideas and technology and growth. It’s just beautiful seeing the origin of my black experience as a Black American, see so much success and see so much sustainability in the soil that I come from. It makes me very proud. It makes me want to, even sometimes, make me find deeper roots here, and I will be back very soon because Ghana feels like home,” Kirk Franklin shared.

He went on to express the deep emotional impact of his travels, noting that the experience of building the Black narrative in Ghana would be a memory he cherishes forever.
“What feels like home is the smile of every human that you meet, the smile of every daughter and son that I run into that are birthed from this beautiful space.
"Even though it has a tragic history of our displaced people, they have revisited that moment, and it’s transformed it to be a place of healing and restoration and growth and development and empowerment that only can happen in Ghana,” he added.
