On 17 October 1921, the great Ashanti warrior queen Yaa Asantewaa passed away. Her story is that of a queen who rallied masses to fight for their independence; hers is a story of courage, determination, and stamina. Yaa Asantewaa led a rebellion against the British at a time when the men surrounding her were low in spirit, afraid, and discouraged. She arose them to fight for their independence, and for their nation. Her fight against British colonialists is a story woven throughout the history of Ghana. - Queen- @misslilitham Photographer- @ndumisosibanda - #Yaaasantewaa #ejisu #ghana #warofthegoldenstool #mbewumovement #blackgirlmagic #blackgirlsrock #queens #ghana #ashanti #power #strength #bravery #africa #african #ndumisosibanda #johannesburg #jozi #gold #afropunk #history #blackhistory #asante #cinema
