The president of Ghana requested that Mr. Floyd’s name be permanently mounted on the wall of the Diasporan African Forum at the W.E.B. Du Bois Centre in Ghana’s capital, Accra. President Akufo-Addo declared 2019 the Year of Return, with a special invitation to all Africans in the diaspora, especially the descendants of slaves, to come to Ghana, either to visit or even to live permanently. Protests against police brutality and in solidarity with worldwide demonstrations calling for justice for George Floyd have been held across Africa.
