Ghana's Arch and St. Louis Arch

As what I'm looking into this I am seeing that IShowSpeed is showing alot of cool things coming out of Africa. What really made me take a look twice was the Independence Arch in Ghana. As He is in Ghana today it really made me look at it like well I wonder why it's there and what it means. Here's what I found out.

According to , Ohio Weslyean University it stated that , "Independence Arch was built by the first president of Ghana, Kwame Nkrumah in 1961 for Queen Elizabeth II's visit to Accra.

The Arch represents Ghana's struggle for Independence from imperial British rule.

It also honors the fallen soldiers who died fighting for Ghana's freedom. " I didn't realize it was all because of that so I started to look further as I read other sites started to talk about what happened afterwards ,but not really on the part where I wanted to find out more about the fallen soliders and why it happened in the first place. However it's very interesting and beautiful to learn about the histroy aobut the two momuments and it surely shows how different and how they want Africa to unite so much because of all what struggles they had and now changing for anew.

Additional, from what I read alot has changed from different Presidents making sure there are reminders of how far they had come ,but it's really cool to me is how it has the same resemblances as the Arch in Saint Louis ,Missouri. It's hilarious ! However the difference is the Arch in Ghana was for independence ... The St. Louis Arch is for being the Gateway to the West and where pioneers had settled.

Either way, I found it interesting and it makes me laugh everytime I see them both and both are beautiful. They make me both proud because as one shows for independence and uniting others...St. Louis wants the same thing as for it's for peace when we get up and we see it. We united alot because we want to make things happen since we are a show me state. I love it so much that we are especially when we dance, sing , show why we love our food ( talking about both of us on that ) ,but it's beautiful.

I just find it really interesting that is going on live and bright . I also in love how he's showing all in Ghana about what is beautiful all about it. Especially right now there's a boxing match on what is going on as well which is so wonderful. I still say that him showing this is like a family reunion . It's where you see all your cousin clown and then some that are civilized as well . I think if you get the time you need to take a look at what is happening in all his streams starting from the start of Angola . I think you should look into that because it would really start to slowly open your eyes about what and why he wanted to show it in the first place . It will keep you entertained. Keep looking at it . If you gotta have it in the background , then do that ,but look into what he is showing . It's beautiful on what is going on as well. Here is the link of where you can look into his first one and recent one:

The recent one right now is in Ghana. All of it is lovely and right now as I speak he's boxing someone right now. So go head and enjoy that. It's so beautiful .
