500 years ago when our ancestors were stolen from the continent to be sold in the west, not one of the current nations within the current Africa with its artificial borders existed. None of our ancestors said "we are leaving Ghana, Nigeria, Togo" ect.
This monument is it really to honor our ancestors or just to generate income for those nations because not one has open the doors for us the descendents of our stolen ancestors to become citizens but rather put up road blocks.

Whether those countries were named that or not, the tribes are pretty much the same and will confirm the migration and family history. For instance, the igbo tribe.. forgive me if tribe is offensive.. (ethnic group)... you can take the genetics test and see if your DNA will link with an Igbo family or whichever and that will confirm where you came from... so yes you can still be Nigerian, Ghanian, ect... and google the Senegal women marching for Angela Davis... there were Continental Africans fighting for us since slavery.. Kings and Queens too.. you think people wanted to lose their family without a fight? Of course they would go down fighting and buried... dig deeper
