Life at that time was all about nothing but simple survival. No greed for sinful wealth, community cared for each other. Life was so simple

Proud Ewe and Akan! Love my people 🇹🇬🇬🇭

So surprised how our English accent has changed over the years. I love the accent. Can listen to it all day

Tears in my eyes. The beauty, the simplicity and the serenity. What do I see today.

That’s my grandfather !!!!! Fui Nyamadi!! 🇬🇭🥰🥰🥰

Things to remember back in the days, God bless our home land Ghana 🇬🇭

love this, I can relate...remind me of life in the Caribbean "back in the day" as we say...my uncles used to fish... us kids help pull the fishing net....I also remember market days...this is my culture....the net was called a fry net, used for catching fries and jacks. My grand mother and aunt used to knit those. There was always one being made or repaired. i have to learn how to make one, wish i learned back then. thanks for sharing.

These programs are so addictive and educational. I cannot get enough of them.

When life was simpler, they dont look stressed. The black and white portrayal misleads us to think they were living in dark times but i think their lives were rich with the colors of happiness, simplicity and content.

Thank for showing us how our country use to be. ❤

Brilliant! Thanks for letting us in on a bit of how life was in Ghana, about 70years ago. I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it,

Wonderful beaches untouched Absolutely beautiful Ghana everything is so clean

Thank you very much for posting this. My mom and I enjoyed every minute.

I miss Ghana! Thanks for posting this!

The good old days, when there was no greed, selfishness and others. There was love for one another (Ga's ,Ewe's, Akan and other tribes).

i love everybit of this movie...I am simply short of words to express how feel, but i love it so much

27:20 - it is something about your mother's love that gives you the strength to move forward.

The market scene is almost the same as today! The school style is almost the same too. So we've remained the same, more or less.

Nostalgic feeling for me as I sat here watching this clip. I grew up in a small Ewe tribe fishing village in western coastal part of the Cote D’Ivoire called Tabou and life back then in the village was almost identical to this fishing village in the Volta region of Ghana. All we did everyday was fishing the traditional way. When there was an issue between parties, the elders resolved it the traditional way. There were no crime and other vices as today. Life was very simple compared to these days that the winds of globalization has crawled into every village on Mother Earth, spreading greed and grave personal self-interest. One can only long for these beautiful days. I can’t go back but to spring forward and hoping for the best. Thanks for sharing this documentary.

Thanks for giving us the real History of Gold Coast now Ghana. It’s very important to let the new generation to know about our history especially in particular in videos, films etc it’s very unique. Thanks once again 😅

I will like to visit Ghana,God willing 😃

4:04 omg who else understands and speaks ewe?

Excellent vid. It has a peaceful vibe.

So at 24:24 that's where the Funky Chicken dance that I used to do in the 1970s came from!

Interesting video. Authenticity distorted when an ewe woman is called Adzoa, her Ga husband is Kwame and she speaks Ga with her brother

Proud to be Ewe.

This is a great film! Thank you for posting!

The dance they are doing at 24 minutes is called the Agbadza

Need more of this😊, very educational

Wonderful video! Great family structure!!

Fantastic! Thank you!

My country 🇬🇭😊 our land

Beautiful people, proud Ghanaian ❤❤❤❤. It’s sad our politicians are bring division amongst us.

It's weird, I'm seeing in coloured. First language spoken was Ewe "Evvé" second was Fante " Fan-ti", third was Ga.

GTV never showed such jewels.

The good old days, How I wish the entire world should go back to it old black and white days 🤗

New sub. Great channel, awesome content.

(Ewe) by spelling and English pronunciation.. (ev3) by spelling and native tongue pronunciation

24:00 Awolooo Agbadzá looo.. hmm hm!! So lovely those sunday celebrations

This is cool footage

😂one person is being accused of casting his net over someone's economic zone. The accused got angry for being charged 20 💷 pounds for the offense...and therefore he says he'll seek an appeal even if it means going to see the queen of england Queen Elizabeth😂(am a Ghanaian from the Ewe tribe)

This is exactly how my parents dance 20:05

This was the EWE tribe in the volta region and the diction of good english language was spoken not today when all is dowon the drain

I'm proud to call myself a Nyamadi ❤

Wow, fearing of women did not start today. I saw on on if the buses that fear woman and save your life 😂 Mothers have the best ❤

Those days ❤❤❤❤❤

Waoo great documentry

Nice piece. Shows you how easy it was for the imperialist to colonise us and even how slow our progress has been since then. We need to speed up things if we want to be at par with the west.

All that was done was passing down skill,for sustaining ,and they said we were not enough,,,simplicity at its peek.

Thank you for sharing

Interestingly lovely

Please bring more of this story

This is my hometown Blekusu -we

Imagine the modern value of coastal property...beach front homes.

Ghana my motherland.

@11:06 a chief and a group of 12 men. Christ and his disciples?

Thanks for the explanation. But remember you are Asante, not Ashanti.

It has been spoken that the Black Afrikan Diaspora to come home NOW, ASE!

3:12 - "my father was not a bad man but he hate showing it. Reminds me of my mother and myself at times my kids friends saw me a mean and would sometimes be afraid to come around which means that she went to their house most of the time. I saw what her friends were doing and I tried to show her who they were and how they were using her to get there mother's to say that they could got different places because my daughter was tall and looked older but the funny thing was that I thought just like the other mother but I had to call and speak to this mom because I wanted to know was she saying that it was okay for their kids to go to the mall or even just walk up the street which was not but these kids were not to go but somehow they thought it was okay because some parents did know me and some didn't but because my child seemed more mature they believed the lie that the kids would tell. I would later find out about one of the parents that did not know be but still thought my daughter was s good kid and she was. My daughter started telling about things and people that were in the house when her mom was there and not the more she talked and gave the more I told her that I was not okay with it and I needed to see and speak to this mom to see for my self. I would not tell her what my daughter said in the beginning and nor did I tell her that my daughter was younger cause I wasn't thinking about that at first because I wanted to trust that wherever she went with these kids that she wood do the right thing. I would see one of the other mom's that knew from doing the community program for the kids some summers ago. She smiles at me all the time and asks how my daughter is doing, she likes her, you know you gotta be a really nice person when you see some Africans speak to you cause in the beginnings they kept their kids away form ours. The mom would ask me how old is my daughter and I will tell her and in the beginning she was shocked but somehow she forgot because her daughter was older then mine but this mom knew me and really liked my daughters ways and as time went by she got taller the more the mom's would let these kids do more things away from home. I finally had a taught with both mom's cause now we are l asking where the girls are, they caught the phones off and say rhey the phone died while we were in the park, lol, five or six girls at the park and no workable phone. At first I could get s hold of my daughter and she would tell me were she was as well as the other girls, I am so thankful these days are done and she is beginning to see who her friends are today. As she matures and I continue to talk to her she is becoming more aware of what is going on, not saying all my challenges are over because that is sometthing I have to do to keep the mind open. What does also make it easier for me is that she will be eighteen next year and I will react and respond to her differently for sure that mean when she finishes school there will be more money in my pocket to pay bills and do more for myself. I care but this is what I mean when I say it is what it is and I know and understand that my kids do not have to be perfect but they sure in the hell better shoe me that they care about themselves cause how they treat me is how I get to show them who I can be and still be good to them and love them unconditionally alligned with who they treat me but I will be doing this for the love of self and freedom of speech and the way I wanted to live. We all have Choice and my children may forget sometimes because this society is not for people of integrity and that will be used to help them see what happens when your heart is open but it ain't stop me from living life and I am still here standing. This is what I want for my children but they got to remember me and themselves.

Much of Keta is lost to the sea and still threatened

And someday it happened, so did the use of DDT for fishing, galamsey and mercury for mining , the fear of the gods left and the water bodies have been exploited to our detriment.

Did Ghana use to drive on the left hand?

Hi Mike.! Wanted to speak 🙏🏿✨ Thanks

Never seen this on here. . .

The narrative at the ending was a lie. The father was ready to go and see the boats for himself. So he didnt have any problems with new things. His issue was indebtedness to the government.

I hope he got a ship instead of a boat...

Thought dat was joey badass

❤💛💚

Phili public library

Thought that was godfrey

Gotta Love Canada

This is a movie and not a real stuff ...

This Paints a wrong Picture! Obviously Made by Colonial Masters. I am an Ashanti Born new Manhyia Palace Kumasi Ghana. I lived also in Accra. The languages they speak is Ewes and Ga Tribe [ These are Minorities - Lifestyle of Minorities in Ghana is what they portraying which doesn’t speak for even up to 10% of the way of Life of Ghanaians ] and some Twi but the coast line lifestyle and fishermen along the coast especially around Keta volta region is not that rich. In the beginning they talked of a breakfast Akple , which i never tried in my life and a delicacy of Ewe people in Keta along the sea. THE TITTLE SHOULD BE FAMILY OF EWES & GAs ALONG THE COAST OF GHANA. The Capital Accra also a Coast line and like all countries fishermen along the sea shores don’t really make a lot of income from their occupation and are living an unprivileged Kinda lifestyle.. This is all they tryina portray plus colonial masters came for slave trade along the coast lines and they built slave dungeons along the coast line . So in short the lifestyle they know is mostly that along the coast lines which isn’t representative of all Ghana . REMEMBER THAT ..

This is acting tho...

I thought this video was a joke, looked like Black Yougsta in the thumbnail😂

Propaganda
