The Embassy of Brazil in Accra on Wednesday, August 6, 2025 hosted a performance of a show dubbed "Amor Negro Amor."It was attended by ambassadors of Latin American countries, Gha­naian cultural and tourism authori­ties, and PANAFEST organisers.PANAFEST is a festival dedicat­ed to celebrating African heritage and reconnecting the diaspora with its ancestral roots.The Brazilian cultural collective Ação Zumbi sang and danced to the admiration of the attendees.Their message encapsulates one­ness, love, humanity and peace.The event signifies celebration of the shared history and cultural connections between Brazil and Ghana.In a welcome address, Mr Alex­andre Sotou, Deputy Head of the Brazilian Mission said the Embassy "remains committed to supporting initiatives that promote cultural di­plomacy and strengthen Afro-Bra­zilian and African ties."He said the presence of Ação Zumbi in Ghana during PANAF­EST 2025 marks a moment of deep historical and symbolic significance for Brazil and for the entire African diaspora."PANAFEST is much more than a festival - it is a space of reconnection and identity reaffir­mation, where stories, struggles, and aspirations converge.

Ação Zumbi's participation in this con­text honors the legacy of Zumbi dos Palmares and of so many other leaders who courageously fought for freedom, dignity, and the recognition of African roots in Brazil," Mr Sotou said.The Deputy Head of Mission said the Embassy of Brazil in Accra is honoured to host a group that so powerfully embodies the anti-racist struggle, the preserva­tion of Afro-Brazilian cultural her­itage, and the pursuit of historical justice.

Ação Zumbi represents not only the resistance of the past, but also the transformative action of the present."May this visit be fruitful.

May the bonds between Brazil and Ghana grow even stronger.
