4.  The Great Home Coming documentary 

This Rare Videocassette is Called The Great Home Coming. It is a documentary. Each year some Caribbean countries commemorate Emancipation Day the day chattel slavery was formally abolished in Britain and its colonies. This Film is about the First ever Emancipation Day commemoration on the African Continent, which took place August 1998. The country is Ghana in West Africa. What makes this Emancipation Day commemoration unique is not only because it is the first time in Africa, but also because the remains of two African Enslaved Ancestors of Ghanaian origin are returned for re-internment in the motherland. This Film takes us through some historic sites such as The Door of No Return, the final exit for captives at the Cape Coast Castle Dungeon on the infamous Trans Atlantic journey into Slavery. A moving and informative documentary, the film reflects on Ghana, as a pioneer and pacesetter for the emancipation of Africa and provides inspiration to all Africans and friends of the continent towards this unique event. This is an extremely Rare tape! Unfortunately the producer of this film Noah Owusu passed away mysteriously, shortly after completion of this fine work. Thus three people that we know of in New York were given copies to sell. We were one of the fortunate three. One of the other sources sold out of,  I believe 50 copies. The other expressed to us that he is going to hold on to what he has. We brought quite a few copies as we participated in the event in Ghana and also journeyed to Jamaica West Indies  to the Seville plantation for research later that year. (We also have the Video, Tribute to our Ancestors which documents the traditional wake/setup and burial for enslaved Africans in Jamaica West Indies Crystal, a female from Seville Plantation was brought back home to Ghana as documented in the Film The Great home Coming. The event in Jamaica West Indies occurred one or two years earlier I believe.) Below are some photos from the event in Ghana, President Jerry Rawlings and wife, A Slave reenactment, Remains of Samuel Carson and Crystal being brought across the sea in a traditional canoe. This is a must for serious scholars and students of the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade.
