Thanksgiving


Tomorrow is the Saturday of the Thanksgiving weekend. My plan is to celebrate Hogbetstotso in Toronto with the Ghanaian Canadian Ewes who hail from Southern Volta area. Hogbetsotso is a celebration for an escape and migration which occurred centuries ago in West Africa. This escape will be enacted. The festival also connects with the Harvest celebration, because of the time of year. There will be a lot of food served at Hogbetsotso, much dancing, performances and speeches. I shall take my camera to record the event, particularly the food and also the dance performances.
