Did you know that the ‘Black Star’ in the flag of Ghana was an homage to #marcusgarvey who greatly influenced #KwameNkrumah, the first leader of independent Ghana “Africa for Africans, those at home and those abroad.”

Honestly everyone I had the most fabulous time with the pupils @TwickPrimary - they were energetic, interested, enthusiastic and wonderfully creative. Plus their questions were 1000 times better than any from the journalists I’ve spoken to. https://t.co/4cRdQKZ2IY
