[QUOTE="Bunmi Doyin, post: 777860, member: 29467"] I've lately been on a search for the TRUE Indigenous religions in different Afrikan countries pre-Islam/Christianity. Of course, much/most of the information is lost or deliberately destroyed or kept as oral tradition or "white man's superstition"... But my Husband and I want to go with our three children to Afrika hopefully, prayerfully, by next Summer. We were looking to MOVE to Ghana due to its high English-speaking rate and the alleged "welcoming" of African Americans. I've been talking to several Black Brothers and Sisters here that have homes or businesses in Ghana and "go back and forth" from here to there....they've said some positive things, but also some disparaging things about the cost of living and the high amount of fees associated with travel. It's almost like they want everyone just to stay in one country! My husband and I wanted to just spend a few months exploring, driving across several countries in Africa. But we calculated the alleged fees for visas and other mess and just to go from Ghana to Nigeria round trip would be **** near $1000! *sigh* anyway....we just want to know how BLACK people are received over there. We've read blogs from white travelers who go on and on about the hard time Africans give them with being robbed, corrupt police officers and customs officials, etc. etc.....but we are Black. Would it be the same hard time for us? But really the main point of this thread was to find out if anyone knew what the people of Burkina Faso practiced and worshipped before Islam and Christianity? We were thinking of going to Burkina Faso as well, the only problem is that they don't speak English....Thanks in Advance for any information, Loves :) [/QUOTE]
