about

This classic E.T. Mensah highlife song captured the hope of the early 1960s when Pan-Africanist African leaders Kwame Nkruma of Ghana, Guinea’s Sékou Touré and Mali’s Modibo Keita formed the Union of African States. The union fell apart in 1962 when Guinea started to reach out to the United States for support, contrary to the Soviet inclinations of the other two.
