⁣Link Up Podcast — Ep 6 | Ft Okunini Talawa Adodo, w/Azuka
Hosts: Niara Esi Ìjèawelē Ọmọlará Kwento & Bakari Kwadwo Ọbatayé Kwento

Akɔaba, Woezɔ, Oɔbaake (welcome) to another episode of Link Up Podcast, where we connect with Abibifoɔ (Black People) doing Black powerful work across Abibiman (the Black Land) and the diaspora.

In this episode, we Link Up with Okunini Talawa Adodo, an Agya, Kmtyw warrior scholar, linguist, currently teaching in the united snakkkes, and traveling Black Powerful speaker. Joined briefly by Azuka, Okunini Talawa brings us through his journey from experiencing Abibifoɔ living in Toronto’s Jamaican diaspora, catholic insanity-indoctrination, early Garveyite exposure, and the journey that moved him from general Black awareness into raising his Black behavior through a more disciplined framework obtained while at Temple University, working with Mambo Ama Mazama, Ɔbenfo Kimani Nehusi, and connecting with Agya Kwadwo Datɛ to Abibitumi and Ɔbenfo Ọbádélé Kambon.

We discuss Jamaican language as a Black language and not “broken English,” the power of Mdw Ntr, Guadeloupe, Ayiti, Ghanaian citizenship, and what it means to return to Abibiman with purpose. Okunini Talawa also breaks down reggae, dancehall, and the mulattofication of Black music “Bout One Lovin' bob marley Syndrome.” This is a conversation about Taak Blak, Dancehall, Black Power, Black language, and raising the next generation to reject bakra foolishness.

* Stay tuned after the conversation for a special animated cartoon episode. *

This is a conversation about raised consciousness becoming raised behavior, Black love as institution, and the work required to bring the whole family Black home.

Hosts: Niara Esi Ìjèawelē Ọmọlará Kwento & Bakari Kwadwo Ọbatayé Kwento


Akɔaba, Woezɔ, Oɔbaake (welcome) to another episode of Link Up Podcast, where we connect with Abibifoɔ (Black People) doing Black powerful work across Abibiman (the Black Land) and the diaspora.

In this episode, we Link Up with Baba Amn and Mama Nuru, a specBlackcular couple raised jew york's 1960-70's Black Power era, rooted in Ma'at, and actively building toward repatriation to Ghana. Both came up surrounded by Afros, daishikis, campus protests, and the scholarship of Nana Ben, Nana John Henrik Clarke, and Nana Amos Wilson — and never left the fight. They share a mud cloth hat, a government building greeting, and a shared BlackPowerful circle pulled them back together. We discuss their travels across Abibiman — from occupied Kemet to Ghana to Burkina Faso — their experience on the Sankɔfa Journey, the community ceremonies that marked their spirits, and their commitment to purchasing land in the xmnw Medjay Community. The conversation also moves through the Ghana citizenship discussion, the importance of organized Black community over isolated individual consciousness, Mdw Ntr study, language, and what it means to return home not as tourists but as builders.

⁣Link Up Podcast — Episode 4 | Featuring Ɓatɨ-Ijɔ̄ Bɛsoŋ

Hosts: Niara Esi Ìjèawelē Ọmọlará Kwento & Bakari Kwadwo Ọbatayé Kwento

with a special Abibitumi 20 Year Anniversary testimonial from Agya Kwasi Datɛ

Akɔaba, Woezɔ, Oɔbaake — welcome — to another episode of Link Up Podcast, where we connect with Abibifoɔ doing Black powerful work across Abibiman, the Black Land, and the diaspora.

In this episode, we Link Up with Ɓatɨ-Ijɔ̄ Bɛsoŋ — a committed daughter of Abibiman (born in Cameroon), an active Abibitumi member, indigenous spirituality practitioner, and serious advocate for returning to Black sanity. She shares her upbringing between urban and rural Cameroon, the powerful influence of her grandmothers, the role of indigenous food, medicine, family structure, and the lessons she received from elders before fully understanding their depth.

We discuss her journey out of imposed religious frameworks, her search for ancestral grounding, her discovery of Abibitumi, and how the platform helped her resist assimilation while living in Krakkka-ville. Ɓatɨ-Ijɔ̄ also speaks on the importance of indigenous language, why she is working to reclaim Kɛ́nyāŋ and Keaka, how language connects directly to ancestral communion, and why speaking only colonial languages creates a break in Black memory.

The conversation also moves through Cameroon’s cultural struggle, repatriation, family structure, polygyny, spirit animals, palm wine, the Sankɔfa Journey, and the work required to pass Black values from one generation to the next.

** Stay tuned after the conversation for a new Animated Cartoon series **

This is a conversation about study, transformation, community, repatriation, land, sanity, and the work required to make KMT Black again.
