The elite in the Ashanti tribe who wore these stoles throughout history were slave owners and even slave traders.

This photo op was a form of blackface... it's really tacky.

“...What is an 80 year old crone doing wearing an 18 year old slut’s stilletos? Then she needed help getting up.....”

The vile demonic Botoxian was probably drunker than a skunk.
It tends to stay that way these days...

Geez! The left are masters at shameless pandering. You’d think they would’ve exercised a little due diligence beforehand.

Each of them is thinking "I wonder how much of the black vote we'll get?"

That's exactly what I thought when I saw this outrageously pandering, barf-worthy moment. One of the stupidest stunts the 'RATs have pulled in years.

And here it was NANZI Pelosi who called out President Trump for a “photo op” with a “prop”.

I always just thought it was African camo.

And I thought they were all celebrating in passing Quilting 101.

She visited both the Cape Coast and Elmina Castles on that visit. Said not a word about the Africans and Europeans selling slaves to the English colonies.

Nancy Pelosi Commemorates 400th Anniversary Of Slave Trade In Ghana

It was a financial boon to Ghana. I suppose that's worth commemorating.
