The Proud Black Buddhist 2001 August Summer Tozan Report
								By Anthony "Amp" Elmore Sr.
	Alan Billups left Nichiren Shoshu Priest Rev.Yamada and PBB Publisher Anthony Elmore on the Right. Rev. Yosai Yamada was out of his Priest Robe in passing when Allen and I asked him to pose for a photograph with us. Anthony Elmore and Alan Billups made an association with Rev. Yamada in 1998 during the Ghana Temple opening. Years ago Daisaku Ikeda excommunicated 90% of the Ghana members and the Ghana members practiced without any connection with the Priesthood for years. When Nichiren Shoshu learned about the African members plight High Priest Nikken Shonin displached Rev. Yamada to Ghana to help the African members. Everything now is history and the first Nichiren Shoshu temple in Ghana was opened in February of 1998.
