W. E. B. Du Bois Memorial Centre for Pan-African Culture Tours

The W. E. B. Du Bois Memorial Centre for Pan-African Culture is the former home and final resting place of American-born socialist, author, and civil rights activist, William Edward Burghardt Du Bois, who became a citizen of Ghana in his later years. Du Bois campaigned for African-American rights and was often referred to as the ‘Father of Pan-Africanism’.
The center, on the outskirts of Accra, was where Du Bois and his wife lived for the last few years of his life, and is where they are now both buried. Along with the couple’s mausoleum, the site features his personal library, as well as a museum with a number of Du Bois’ personal belongings on display. Surrounding the mausoleum is a restaurant, an amphitheater and a research institute dedicated to Pan-African history.

Accra City Tour
Jamestown tour: Historically Jamestown used to be the base of a seaport complete with a lighthouse. There is no port now but the indigenous Ga fisher-folk still use the beach as a landing base for their colorful dug-out canoes with various flags flying on them. Jamestown is a good place to experience indigenous Ga lifestyle.
The Panafricanist Tour: The Dubois center offers an insight into Panafrican history. The Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park also gives an interesting narration into Ghana's genesis of independence.
Fancy Caskets: Ghanaians believe in life after death. The casket in which one is buried defines a man's career on earth and what one is likely to do in the other world. Eg a fisherman gets buried in a fish casket whiles a brick-layer/Mason in a house casket.
Arts/Crafts Market: This is an open air market, that exhibits all the indigenous Ghanaian and African artifacts and curious. The tourist also has the opportunity of testing his/her bargaining prowlers

Year of Return
August 2019, is exactly 400 years after the arrival of the first recorded landing of a slave ship in Virginia, which saw the acceleration of the horrendous Middle Passage, hundreds of descendants of former enslaved Africans will make a triumphant return to the land of our ancestry. The trip will take us to Ghana: the land of Kwame Nkrumah-the father of Ghana’s independence and a co-founder of the Organization of African Unity; the country where the great pan-Africanist Dr W. E. B. DuBois spent his final years; the land where Ashanti Kings still hold court and mediate disputes in time-honoured traditions passed down through generations; the land that has preserved more slave dungeons used in the transatlantic slave trade than any other country on the continent. Ghana was the first sub-Saharan African country to gain its independence from Europeans and is today a thriving democracy, yet its traditions, customs and culture are almost undiluted.
