He holds a M.Ed. from Texas State University-San Marcos and works diligently to improve the lives of disenfranchised communities through the performing arts, mentoring, and community empowerment programs.
Tim and his family, Tia his wife, and Tohaji their son relocated to Ghana in Dec 2019 to help enhance www.anidaso360.com an NGO he co-founded as well as have an alternative life outside of America. The radial climate, rat race, and overall state of affairs in America helped him made this decision and it took several years of planning.

My favorite uncle moved to Ghana, refused to come back to the states (Imma little salty bout that😏), he loved it, he died there. Thank you for making him feel welcomed.
I'm alive nephew, I faked my death for tax reasons.

When a black man goes to Africa for the first time, he instantly becomes taller, you don't realize the atmosphere you're being compressed by, I found that the first time in my life, that atmosphere was lifted.
Beautiful
@@falpinagu1401 he means they stand up straight because they feel more worthy and confident walking in Africa, not that they literally grow taller
@@ninisky2706 that makes more sense. it still sounds kinda dumb lmao
❤💛🖤💚
This was how I felt when I went there in 2003. You're no longer a "black man" you're just a man. It's hard to describe, you must experience it.
I'm a 51 year old AFRICAN/american man and when i watched this video especially what he said in the end i (CRIED!!😢) i want to go to the motherland AFRICA
You will be most welcome brother from America.
One love from Angola, Africa 🙌.
What's sad is most African Americans hate Africa. Iv personally seen African Americans make fun of Africans.
@@forextrader6246
I usually say that for African Americans with that mindset, they are already lost and the USA is exactly the place they should be.
People like this couple are the complete opposite: they have seen the light and they are better off for it now.
And they are most welcome here in the continent.
@@forextrader6246 Really! Wow!
All of mostly 4o million of them?
How ever did you find the time?

I've visited Ghana twice. First time, I visited a friend who lived in Adenta. Hands down my best experience in Accra. Similarities to my small town in the Mississippi Delta were uncanny. Yes, the soil was red just like back home. Neighbors sit out in the front of a small shop to just socialize and chill. Corner shops blaring music was reminiscent of the juke joints that were open even during the day where one could just walk in and enjoy a cold beer (yes I was throwing back a club beer or three every evening, respectfully). My family farmed so I noticed even some agricultural similarities. One afternoon, I was sitting in front of my friend Yvonne's shop as we'd done every evening and, out of nowhere, I burst into tears. Scared the hell out of the rest of the ladies. I was convulsing. That was my spiritual moment on the continent. I cried for ancestors who were taken away from their homes, and for every one that were lost at sea and every one that had to meet their fate beneath whips and in chains. I cried that after 400 years of beating Africa out of them, they'd manage to hold on to some things, even if those things were subtle. Those subtleties broke me down.
Another time I cried was when I sat down to eat and was able to do something that is foreign to most Americans, but was long-standing behavior in my family. My family has always eaten dishes like greens and cornbread with our hands. As a child, I would always feel ashamed for this and thought we were acting "primitive". I didn't know why we did this. We were too poor to travel anywhere to learn it, and when I would ask adults why do we eat certain dishes with our hands, they would just say it tastes better from the fingers. As my great aunt, who was quite animated, picked greens in the garden she would say "When I cook these greens for supper, I ain't inviting nobody over but me and my five sisters!" She meant she and her five fingers 🤣.
Anywho, I grew up with free range chickens, ducks, cows, dogs...you name it. So yeah, Ghana felt like home to me -- until I went to the market. 🤣 Then it feels like a gladiator arena and I knew my wallet was about to get destroyed! After watching my friends haggle, I was tired, I only had energy for a club beer and a bed.
Since my trip to Ghana, everything that can be picked up with a fork, I eat with my hands. Why? Because it tastes better from the fingers. ❤️
Love it. Welcome home.
yall are so damn drramatic jesus.
@@kwamenyame1277 Thank you kindly, Sir! Headed to Senegal in June but will definitely return to Ghana soon!
When you going to the market, you should go with a friend who's known to stuff here. Else they gon cheat you it's common everywhere 🤣
Hugs to you, African Sista! 🤎
I’m a black African-American 🇺🇸 married to a Nigerian 🇳🇬! When I visited Nigeria for the first time, I felt like I was back home from where my ancestors originated. I took a DNA 🧬 test, and it traced it back to Yoruba and Esan descent.
I’m Yoruba and Esan too welcome to the family my sister
What kind of dna test did you take to identify African tribal connections?
Welcome home Siz..........sure you enjoy amala and ewedu 😂
@@kimberaustin8415 that's what I want to know.
I took Ancestry's test, but at best only regions are pinpointed.
I would love to be able to narrow it down.
@@kimberaustin8415 I did the CRI Genetics 🧬 test
I remember some years back when the leader of Ghana invited people of African decent back home. Ugh. I CRIED...bawling. That anyone wants us, asked for us... that never happens never. Just felt so emotional for me and I didn't even know I felt that way 💔
It would of been great if Ghana was offering dual citizenship.
@@tyrn25 They are. Please look into it.
@@unbought6058 I heard something,but nothing on paper
Dude...that was powerful...thats the same way I feel about God...just awe struck that He chooses to love us...
Well if the American government said that they wanted black people it would be discrimination. It would be the same if they asked for white people, asian people, or hispanic people.
I know a good woman when I see one. This man is pursuing a happy, meaningful and fulfilled life because he has the support of a gracious and amiable wife. She speaks so intelligently and with candour, same with the husband. What a wonderful couple!
I feel their marriage is going to be stronger and even fulfilling. Their confidence and self-possession is going to soar to higher up in the sky.

FACTS
I always watch this kind of video to remind myself how blessed I am to be a Ghanaian and how lucky I am to raised in Ghana,I will never take that for granted.❤️🇬🇭
thank you- you get it. l hope you can teach our fellow Ghanaian
Yes, Laud Sekyere, you are indeed blessed.
Africans in America have been kidnapped for over 400 years. They took our language, names culture and God and gave us self hate. Unfortunately most of us victims of this international kidnapped can't afford to come back home, and our family in Africa cant afford to help us return home. So we continue to suffer as victims of this great crime against humanity. Woe are Africans in America.
You're thinking right my brother...we have it in abundance so we forget to appreciate... we sometimes feel less privileged but we're rather the privileged ones
They are starting to sound like Ghanaians😍😍🇬🇭
For real 😊
I hear that too.
The man has mastered the Ghanaian accent.
They are not starting..they actually sound like one 🤣
They never lived in Ghana before?
Yes! This is what I’m talking about moving from America 🇺🇸. I’m 56 years old and never been to Africa. The propaganda America shows to us is always negative on Africa. I see the positivity this channel and Wode Maya are doing to educate us.
Thank you,

Divide and conquer. The last thing they want is for us to join forces and help uplift the motherland.
i just left Ghana thursday. go see for yourself especially if you've been hearing negativity about Africa. I had seen Djbouti Africa before which abolished my training of thought of africa 30 years ago but this was my first time to Ghana. ready to go back already.
Coach Donnie B. Please my dear you just come on holidays to verify your self, don't let any one tells you.
You'll love it here
@@Afrikaislife Fact!!
If the hostess is typical of Ghananian beauty, I'm going there soon; she's gorgeous
Yes, she is typical....lol!
Yeah....she is a beautiful sister
She looks classy tbh
yup, the women there are gorgeous and black. lol
Oh you should see Joselyn Dumas, Yvonne Okoro & etc. Ghanaian women are extremely curvy & very classy.
The husband start having African accent, that is so cute😚
So cute
His explanation about the disconnect between us has really made me understand African Americans a lot more. We really need to make the effort to reconnect.
Same here. I feel like I can now embrace them when they don't understand where we come from or ask strange questions. That will be our connection right there.
Yeah exactly, I see a lot of AA making the effort and we need to start trying to understand too.
Amen !! I love it and he explained everything perfectly
100%
So true! Effort is growing on both sides to learn each others cultures.
Everything you said I probably will forget but one thing I will never forget is how that boy sat there for 54 minutes in the background. The worlds best mannered child.
Wow didn't notice him until I read your comment.
Town/City planners in the country should revise their approach to include places for children while building up neighborhoods. Ghana like many countries in Africa has a very youthful population and yet we have not provided outlets for CHILDREN and family recreation. We can add neighborhood libraries,family parks,recreation centers ,skating rinks,public pools,and other beautiful and safe places for kids to meet and have fun. Malls,betting parlors and Restaurants do not count.
That's normal really with African kids. We would be on the background doing our things and subconsciously listening to what the adults are saying. Sometimes we forget ourselves and get into the conversation. If the parents had been oblivious of us and had started talking adult stuff and we jump into the conversation repeating what they said, the would gasp in shock and then send us to our room, LOL!
@@ndingere7857
haha.. U are right
@RepentJesusisComing, I did the same remark as you and I am very surprise!!! here in France I never see a child with so good behavior
As an American who briefly lived in Nigeria 8 years ago, I fully understand WPO. I feel it all the time at work. I'm blessed to have visited Ghana when I was a resident of Nigeria. I miss Ghana and would love to return, potentially permanently.
I'm of Congolese descent and I love Ghanaians. I would love to visit Ghana one day. They are really great people.
Same here..
We all great people in Africa except south Africa
I am half Congolese and want to visit D.R. Congo, Ghana and Nigeria to begin with and then the rest. I love African people and our culture.

@@Lovely-wy4fo Thank you
I worked with a Nigerian lady who did not like the fact that we were too laid back as Ghanaians. That was eye opening for me
We are really hospitable and that's why Nigerians always feel at home when they come to Ghana. 😍🇬🇭🇳🇬
I like how his accent is almost Ghanaian. He feels at home.
That's not the accent of a Ghanaian lol
But yes he's trying
I can understand why they moved to Ghana. I’m
Very proud to be Ghanian both my parents are Ghanian. What I don’t understand is why a lot of African diaspora specifically settle in Ghana when
Africa is a huge continent. I imagine this couple had a lot of challenges as being African is much more than a dna test . You have to think as an African in this case a Ghanian to fully assimilate into the culture. Even people who are of direct Ghanian descent and know who they are & have kept their culture, can find it challenging to settle back in Ghana if they lived in say Europe for 20yrs.
It's great to hear his cadence it's not quite there but it's getting close...
I don't really hear him trying to have any accent... seems like a normal American to me
Im moving to motherland soon too,love from a jamaican😌😌🇯🇲🇯🇲🇬🇭🇬🇭
We can’t wait
czcams.com/video/-j3fSYiJEGs/video.html
They love us there. Our cultures are similar, but of course we are all Africans. I loved it there and I felt so connected to the land and the people. It will be my home one day very soon!
Come to the motherland but please come with plenty of money to set up businesses and employ the locals to help the economies of the continent. The thing is not many people pay taxes in the continent so everything has always fallen on the governments with limited finances and because you might like to have your own car or cars on the road and without paying taxes to the government which won't be fair on the locals so you're always invited to come to Africa but come and help the country, yourself and the people and not just to add to the population or to have easy life.
You must check out Little Jamaica when you get there.
I love that this father loved his son enough to move him out of the oppressors house 🏡

How many times did you have to give the police something small? Even playing the peace broker for the other man ? 😃😃😂😂
@Frank Bekoe, I did the same remark as you and I am very surprise!!! here in France it is very rare to see a child with so good behavior
That's not America, it's the parents responsibility to train and teach your children whatever behaviour you want to enforced
The Parents
I am a Jamaican 62 years old. Since I was a little girl my mom usually dressed as an African always talk about Africa. She has never been there but always called herself an African. My mom never said "I am a Jamaican" although she was born in Jamaica. As a result of that I always have the idea in my head that one day I really want to see Africa one day. Right now at my age I would sell all my possessions and go to Africa if I only know how. It doesn't matter to me where in Africa . That would be my Mecca the feeling that I would get from that.
Jamaican born here too. I went to Ghana in 2017. I can say that being born in Jamaica, I've always known I am one of Africa's children.❤️❤️ There are a lot of Jamaicans in Ghana and they love everything Jamaica.
Ghana is as good as any other African country. Please ask for advice, do a little research and go for it! You won't regret it.

Ghanaians are simply free spirited people .... Trust my words 🇬🇭🇬🇭.... we create happiness from even situations we think is challenging.... I'm proud to be Ghanaian.
I agree 1000%...I am AA and my husband is Nigerian...I felt the connection when I first visited and my spirit just kept pulling me back. I moved to Naija and have not looked back. America is exhausting for African Americans and we all some form of PTSD from living there. Only perk of living in US is convenience on certain things.
Well said.You are blessed.

True, I am from Africa living in United States. It is convenient to live in US, but it is not as fulfilling living as in Africa.
@ross fingal perhaps most of the ones you have met. Many would go back if they had the financial wherewithal. They stay in the US because they have built or are pursuing a sufficient income stream there. Many Africans abroad are building in the diaspora so they can return home better than they left.

When I went to Ghana for the first time I DEFINITELY felt like a black/brown woman! That is, I felt the way we are all SUPPOSED to feel and not the way white people work to make us feel and IT WAS GLORIOUS!
But wouldn't you feel less like a "black" person if everyone is black?
@@IslenoGutierrez This will sound argumentative only because it is in writing and you cannot hear my tone but it's not meant to be. Think about what you asked above and then answer it by inserting other races or ethnicities into your question like this...
would a white person feel less like a white person when everyone is white?
Would latinos and hispanics feel less like themselves when everyone around them is the same? Or do they all feel MORE like themselves or more at home?
Because from what I've seen, in both of those cases, each one of those groups of people would feel MORE like themselves, more at ease and at home, not less. White people because they have an almost instinctual narcissism and issue with anything or anyone that is different from them and latinos and hispanics would feel more like themselves because they would feel the peace of experiencing a rich culture without the interference of white people who tend to insert themselves into everyone else's culture. The same felt true when I went to Africa. I felt more like who I am (of African descent or "black") because I was surrounded by people who looked like me, everything around me was made with me in mind and there was no one there who made it their sole purpose to make us feel otherwise. It was freeing.
@@MakeWay4CJ But it's because you live in a nation made up of many races and your race is a small minority, so maybe you would feel good being around more people that look like you I guess. But when you live in a nation where everyone is the same race, you just feel normal, just Human. You don't attach it to skin tone or race. If you're American (I assume you're American) wouldn't you feel less African since you have a different culture? Im not trying to be argumentative either, it just seems like a weird thing to me to say one would feel more "black/African" in Africa when black in Africa is not seen as an in-group ethnic group like it does in the USA and you being a foreigner would have a different culture despite having somewhat similar origins. Again, not trying to be rude, I'm just puzzled at the response.
@@IslenoGutierrez, no, you feel so very good about being Black like everyone else. It's like being among people who support the same football team as you, rather than being the only one, or facing antagonism from supporters of other teams. See how fellow football supporters act around each other? Celebrating shared bonds? You feel a strong sense of Black pride. Just take it from those who know.
@@oma7698 There have been whites that have said the same thing but in a context of whiteness and majority white nations or areas yet they were labeled as racists for it. Do you see them as racist for it and then do you see yourself racist for it?
My family and I are reconnecting to our Continent of Afrika. We have done our DNA, we know where we originated. We have legally changed our name and our business name. We are expanding our business to Afrika and obtaining a dual citizenship. We love our heritage and are eagerly learning more. We have started learning Swahili. We are so looking forward to living on both continents but ultimately relocating to either Ghana, Rwanda or Senegal.

@@mimiriley4591 Thank you so much Marci for the welcome. Yes we were aware of the language regions. However we've been closely connected to the African Union along with the African Diaspora Development Institute. There is a major push to make Swahili the national language of the continent in the coming years for business purposes, since it is a non-tribal language. We just want to be ahead of the game.

Many years ago I lived in Ghana. I loved it. When I returned to the States I used to wake up and think I was still in Ghana. When I would realize I was back in the states I would be so disappointed. I hope to return to Ghana, or another African country, as a permanent resident. My desire is to leave the States asap. If my family was not in the states I would never return once I left.
Maybe you would want to explore Rwanda as well

I came to Ghana once and fell in love with it... I'll be graduating with two masters which I can use anywhere--including Ghana! I really hope to go back long term in a few years. I understand Bro Tim, because I had the same experience in Ghana. I remember heading to my hotel one evening after dinner and in the darkness of the street, I passed several people, men as well as women, and no one crossed the street to avoid passing me. I wept. I knew I was home. My ancestors helped build America, but make no mistake, Africa is my home. See you again soon, I hope, Ghana.

I am a Liberian who lives in Pennsylvania. I lived in Ghana from 2001 until 2006 when I left. I lived in Nungua and went to Preseco/Datusec. From listening to Tim, I understand where he's coming from interms of culture shocks. However, the key to integrating into the Ghanaian system is to eat the food and learn the language. Once you do that you will find life a little easier. Best of luck to them and God bless Africa.
I'm a Filipino living in Canada and really enjoyed this. I can also very much relate to the aspects in common with Philippine society like expecting "gifts" and having to carefully vet people, but as Tim described, getting references from people you know and trust, very community oriented. And also the positives like people just wanting to be very helpful with one another.

The term African American was adopted by Blacks in the US to reaffirm our connection to Africa. Growing up in the 1970's we were proud to be of African descent while still being proud of the culture that we developed here in the US. I wonder if the disconnect is generational? My mother was a product of segregated schools in the south where she learned positive things about Africa. She attended an HBCU where she was entrenched in the Pan African movement. My children didn't learn anything of the sort in their predominantly white schools. My parents, my husband and I had to teach them. It is crucial that we establish our own schools and universities on both the continent and the US. The HBCU model is a great one.
Well said, and note the term African American was the first time that black people in America chose their own name to be identified by. Before that, we were given names.
Please do not feed the trolls by responding to comments surely meant to get a rise out of those of us engaged in respectful fact based discourse.
@@GeeBee212 My bad my apologies have deleted it
BrooklynBorn 83 the interviewer lost me when she said she was in an uber and was asking the uber driver where his parents and grandparents are from. she keeps forgetting Black Americans' ancestors during slavery had their culture beat out of them.

@THE TRUTH IS HIDDEN IN PLAINSIGHT shame on you one million times for such a filthy language. African., British african, afro Caribbean, afro indian etc are all Africans but identified by the geographical region and culture. They are basically Africans in their DNA.

@@ladylaurenia As I said the reason is they will feel safe not being in the US. If they are afraid they are being hunted down they can always leave. Nobody is keeping them here. My family has been here since at least 1650 when one of the grandfathers was born here. Don't know when his parents immigrated. I think it would be good for more blacks to see Africa as a real option so these videos of people that have made the move are inspirational and I have watched many of them. It is time to go where you are treated the best. IMO.
I have a humorous aside. Many people have told other races to go back where they belong and it is a racist statement for sure. But the covid thing shown a spotlight on an interesting point. Blacks were hit harder by covid from what I hear I don't know the numbers. The reason they were hit harder is their darker skin which doesn't allow that production of vitamin D like a lighter skinned person does. Africa would increase the production of vitamin D shielding blacks from the disease. So concluding. If someone tells you to go back where you belong they may just be helping you out. All racism aside.
I love her interviewing style so gracious and patient
Wish she had her shoes off like they did tho
Ghanaians are more listeners than speakers
The husband is definitely more Ghanaian than he thinks. His accent is spot on. He should get a DNA test. His son is a very lucky boy to have a father like him. If more AA men think that way, more of us will move to Africa and our children and Africa will be much healthier and better for it.
This DNA thing is really quite problematic for me, since it essentializes DNA differences between African groups, something that Africans never embraced - culture and custom is our primary distinguishers. Anyone, regardless of bloodline should be able to join a tribe or nation and be part of it. Africans should avoid the Western essentialization of race and DNA. It’s fine if AAs do it just to know where their ancestors originated, but not as a guide to which African society to join.
We are not African

From Ghana: " I exist as a human being in Ghana", I did not feel black. Bro, you moved me to tears by the heading. Welcome home .A friend told me the first time he realized his color as "black" was when he studied in the US. Thanks for the bold decision to move back to the home of peace & tranquillity.
When I was in Liberia I felt the same way. I felt just like a person not thinking about my race
It really feels like that , you are constantly mindful that you are a target for racial abuse or hate crime . So you are never really relaxed, always careful about not offending anybody or you will be perceived as the angry black man or women. You can’t voice your opinion especially against blatant injustices thy will be quick to say here we go again she is using black race card 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️it’s exhausting
Very true. The black concept only exists outside of Africa. I did not even know I was black until I left Nigeria.
@@Kalagenesis What is the need to think of one's race? Lets talk......somebody enlighten me.......blessings to all.

The interviewer is soooo beautiful 😍and feminine without all the extras.
Loving the realistic representation of Africa. I'm Zambian 🇿🇲 and visited a number of countries in the south and 2 in east Africa. Our continent is beautiful, vast and full of opportunities. Let's all visit more African countries no matter where we are from
yes, AFricans, be proud to be AFrican. Patronize other AFrican countries!!
You guys made me laugh about the bed
Just love the way the man is looking at his wife.......a sign of sincere true love .
Big ups👍👏❤❤❤❤❤
Omg the host lady is gorgeous!
The Hostess is BEAUTIFUL..❤
I’m currently planning a trip to Ghana for June. I’m so nervous but so excited and feel like I’m headed home!
Great if you want friends I'm down for ya ☺️
he is speaking more like a Ghanaian haha
His accent is changing by the day 😃😃
Lol yes! And his mannerisms and exclamations are very African. ❤️
I spent two months in Kenya and Uganda in 2018, living with locals and had a wonderful time. He reminds me of my Ugandan friends! 🤗
I am from New Zealand, and I knew from 10 years old that I would go to Africa 🌍 one day. I went when I was 60, and as I was flying over the mainland heading for Nairobi, I felt like I was coming home. 😊
So true. But like he said, his American accent from the South would have been difficult for many Ghanaians understand. I guess that's why he has dived in the Ghanaian accent. And another good thing is as time passes by, no one will notice if he's a local or foreigner. His wife looks very much like a Ghanaian.
It’s our natural tongue. We belong in Africa.
Do you know how hard it is to talk like white folk with an African muscles in your mouth. It is not natural at all. No matter how much I am around them.
It’s not fair.
@@MrsJammer4 I can imagine that must be very hard to talk like we white folks with your beautiful African mouth. I love the way African people speak, and I could listen to you guys all day!
I loved listening to all my friends in Kenya and Uganda. ❤️
I love to hear their American accents melting away into Ghanaian accents! 🥳
Randy moss
Me too, I don’t know why it delights me to hear them switch in and out of it!! 🥰
It’s no different than when Caribbeans and Africans switch between patois and American slang. Or switch between patois/African accent with British accent.
OMG I love how I can hear the Ghanaian accent creeping into the way the husband speaks, and hearing how safe and at home they feel makes me oh so happy!
My fellow Africans, let’s continue to connect inter-continentally! This is absolutely beautiful
The old man is home! He has began to breathe and live rather than exist. I am always filled with incredible joy when an African American(especially the men)finds peace,acceptance and happiness in Ghana. They deserve all the peace and happiness in the world.
When he said Black men being able to shed the hardness and just laugh. 😔😥
Very informative. I live in America and want to learn about Ghana. My mom said my descendants are from West Africa. Ghana Indian.
I just came from Cameroon last week and immediately I touched down I was ready to turn around and go back 😅
I can't explain the feelings it's like being home but you've never been there before
This is one of the best interviews I've seen of Black expats to Ghana. That main positive of just being able to live as a human being rather than by your skin color is wonderful.
I don't care where the diaspora want to settle. Much love from 🇿🇦🇿🇦
thanks so much
Me too bro . I really don't care where in africa they go but as long as they don't have to live in fear for the rest of their lives
This interview is powerful and enlightening. I love it and enjoy how Tim and his wife break things down as a black man in America. Compare to the relief you get when you arrive in Ghana is priceless. Much appreciated!
I'm here for both 🇿🇦 and 🇬🇭. I live in South Africa and have visited Ghana. Believe you me, while on my visitation I had to fight the edge to start seeking employment in Ghana as soon as I get back home. Basically, I fell for Ghana hard.
I hear the Ghanaian accent in Tim 😉.

If i can make a suggestion, please don't be offended. If you go to Ghana try also traveling to the neighboring countries so you can get a feel of the differences. Ghana is one of the more developed countries...and i loved it. However, there are many repatriates in most African countries now.
@@SuperTruthful that’s where He’s from doe
@@oj4499 ok, i was reply to Lawrence. I thought it would be his first time to Africa...and i was just suggesting yes, he goes where he wants but if he could also travel to the neighboring countries while he's on the continent. not demanding just suggesting.
I am Jamaican raising two black boys in Canada. I also teach in the school system here and what I see is frightening so much so I want to pick up and run home to Jamaica. My older son has been to two private schools and the second day of the first one the teacher asked me if my child needs to be medicated. I took him out. The next school the teacher said he is "socially challenged" because he plays too "rough". What's worst she said because he is giving "so much challenges and he is so brilliant then he must be autistic". This is how they see Black children. They push them into some labelled corners, and then they think they are too black to be brilliant.

I had the pleasure of meeting a woman from Ghana and she was the sweetest omg. I picked her brain so much about how it’s like living in Africa. She was so inviting letting me know how we are welcome. I’m ready to visit once I get my finances together.

Omo, even me I'm shocked!
czcams.com/video/-j3fSYiJEGs/video.html
I can relate...I feel like that too every time I travel to Africa. It’s weird, I feel like a human and the racial stress lifts off your soul. It’s like you can breathe, it can feel suffocating living in the US.
Move to Africa .
Even in Europe too,am Ghanaian living in England,but I have never felt home or welcomed here, can't wait to relocate back home at the right time
You might be able tell Ghanaian diet is low in processed sugars by...
1) the host’s skin. Her skin is beautiful. She has some skin glowing that looks super attractive.
2) the kid . He’s able to stay focused, no ocd nor short attention span.

Thank you to all the African Americans that have not forgot us I am from Congo but living in the US now but regretting it now want to come back now
This is how I feel. My father was from the US and my mother from Canada. My dad always said that he did us wrong by raising up in NS as a Black Canadian. Since I moved from NS to Alberta, I have been looking into where I can live as a human being. Ghana is one of my choices. Growing up in Nova Scotia is no treat for any Black person. Good for you that you found your home! I hope I am blessed to find the same opportunity.
It's been 3 months since you made this comment. May i ask if you've had the chance to look into different African countries to visit for a start? I've been to Senegal and Ghana and i loved both places though i live in Lagos. West Africa is a cool place to visit and live in so also are the rest of Africa. It all depends on the kind of life and environment you prefer.
Is this not one of the most beautiful, classy women you've ever seen. This is the true representation of a beautiful black woman. Intelligence, humility, beauty and worldliness.
I'm hoping every young African person in the diaspora, especially those who are born and raised in the U.S. would get the mindset to repatriate back to the lands of their origins, Africa. I truly believe it'd be beneficial. I think Africa is the right place to obtain a peace of mind and place to recuperate.

Peace of mind is not based on your physical location.......It is a state of mind.........It is a choice one makes regardless of where they happen to be. Inner world creates outer world.....If you choose to have a peace of mind in the US.......That will be your reality........Same thing in Africa.......Once you stop being BLACK you will be free.....Lets talk.....somebody enlighten me........Blessings

@JerseyGurl8999 so u from nj now?
Hugz&💋 I wished when my boy's was younger I moved to Ghana, Although I pondered writing National Geographic, to see if I can get sponsored some way to get my boy's to Africa. Single working class Mother, social media was not like today. I heard of MySpace, but I really didn't use my computer at home,after on computer at work even before I had my 1st.Child at 25yrs. Old. I never had a mentor. & my family everyone retired out of state. I wish I would've moved forward to getn to Ghana. Knowledge is key.Take time to research. There's a reason The gentleman was protecting with questions to make sure the child is good. Here in the U.S. American Descendants of Chattle Slavery ADOS, the atrocities bestowed on our ancestors damaged Blacks in the U.S. For generations to come. The Black women & Black children are the most unprotected folk in the U.S. Black folk so spiritual & we just don't think or do the same. We are the most loving.& want to help. I'm sad to say many Blacks especially Social media, T.V. Some so called woke,or Black journalists, Black police, urban neighborhoods etc.Are white washed, or affected by these european americans,& do some sick evil junk white folk do, you would neva think a Black would do.Men suppose to protect women & promote manhood. Raising beautiful Black boy's in the hood with no father figure can be done. But the Mother got to be vigilant neve let yr boy's leave the front porch etc. & Do alot. Preditors can be in tbe schools, neighborhood police,judges etc. Come with many faces. The racism is systematically put here to destroy Blacks.& America still got unfinished business for Blacks. Conquer÷ is real. Right not white social media is tryna push the narrative Blacks attacking Chinese.That's a lie. The chinese& whites know it's a lie. The world is seeing the hate& racism whites done to Blacks, for over 400yrs. The chinese know better to. They have already gotten grants, money.& it's the other way around. The chinese & Asian have killed, us beat us, racist to us, in their restaurants, beauty supply's & across the board. The couple of chinese that was attacked here in San Francisco, the Bay. Where I now live. But I was raised in West Oakland & during the Black Panthers era. The men were mentally ill, came from behind& didn't even know they was chinese. It's all on camera. One Mid age Chinese man called the police& lied. He was on camera& was not attacked. Chinese have already raised money. & the whites know it's a lie. Yet America have not paid the Blacks our reparations for the atrocities bestowed on our ancestors for over 400yrs. Stripped of our language, kids, husbands, etc. took from us. It's 2021. Prison pipeline for or boy's&girls. But with God on yr. Side. You neva alone. It all just draws me closer to God. Fasting, praying without ceasing. Reading&standing on God's word. Keeping my mind on the things up above.Not the junk down here. Oh yes, we will God Willing someday visit Ghana, or some part of Africa. I no longer have small boy's. I only want to visit & feel every Black should visit Africa. Shout out to that strong father in this interview & his beautiful wife. & the interviewer. I pray God continue to bless this family. 💘
Thank God for Internet and Africans telling our story..shout out to Wode maya
This brother really look like an Akan for me he IS a TRUE son of Ghana. I'm Happy you are at back home. Akwaba.
This is beautiful, simply beautiful. I spent the last 3 months in Kigali Rwanda, it was my first time on the continent. I fell in love with the people, the city, the weather and myself all over again. The experience was so enlightening that the ancestors revealed to me that this is my home. I'm going back in August to look for a place to rent initially until I find that house that says "I'm yours"...I kept saying to myself, damn, I wish I had done this 20 years ago...

Ghana is a wonderful country with the most loving and welcoming people! I went there last year to marry my Nigerian bride in Accra, and the thing that struck me most was how friendly everyone was. I'm as white as rice but not once did I feel unsafe, even in some of the less than prosperous areas. As Canada, and the west in general, is moving in a direction that I feel is wrong, and with our natural blessings being stolen by, ahem, a certain Asian country, I'm seriously thinking of moving to Ghana. I have no doubt that there will be challenges but with God all things are possible! God bless Ghana and her people.
