I Miss Sallah Celebrations🥳🎉

Today I remember some 15years back in Koforidua during Eid celebrations. Aside looking forward to a holiday, not having to go to school, receiving crunchy fried cow meat from our Muslim neighbors, we also anticipated greatly the super loud and exciting parade along the main streets in our neighborhood. In the mornings, you'd see lots …

Learn and Think For Yourself

You can stay in the green zone, allow me venture beyond that I am a curious human being, not even curious enough. I love to know stuff. I take pride in 'knowing' things, and being knowledgeable about pretty much 'everything'. I still find out on a daily basis that my knowledge is actually very very …

I Won’t Die For You Because I Love You

Dear Woman, It’s Okay To Be A Woman

I'm a feminist. And I thank Chimamanda and her book, Dear Ijeawele greatly for that. To me, being a feminist means fighting for equal rights and freedoms of all groups and individuals. To me, being a feminist means no one should ever feel pressured into being something other than who they truly want for themselves. …

Shame On The Lovers of Baseless Rules

One of my favorites groups on facebook is the Dreadlocks group, especially for when I started my own locs. On that page we share news of people who had to stand up for their locs and won. Usually they are black boys being told by some white teacher to cut their locs. Then on that …

The Day of Remembrance

Remember me, though I have to say goodbye, remember me... From Coco. Why do we celebrate the dead? Why Easter? Why memorial services? Many people will celebrate Easter and yet will condemn celebrations in remembrance of the dead. Why a day of the dead? Why tomb sweeping festival? Why throwing food to ancestors? We celebrate …
