This design was selected as the most successful as the colours extremely bright and vibrant keeping in with the celebratory tone of the countries within West Africa and celebrating the origins and roots of traditional black gospel. The design is successful in representing the idea of hidden messages and the andrika symbols swell as the colours celebrate the culture of west African countries, specifically Ghana where are a lot of the slaves came over from. The symbols also both critique slavery on one side and celebrate the emancipation and freedom of slaves on the other, therefore it achieves two sides of the history.
