How do language, culture, history, and African-centered ways of knowing help us understand the connections among African people across time and geography?
In this UWP Scholar Spotlight, contributing scholar Talawa Adodo, Ph.D. discusses his contribution to Transcendental Africanity: The Key to Defeating Afrophobia and Reclaiming Global Africa, edited by Mohamed Saliou Camara, Ph.D.
Dr. Adodo’s scholarship engages African civilizations, African and Afro-Caribbean languages, Africology, cultural continuity, and questions of African identity across time and space. His contribution to Transcendental Africanity enters the volume’s larger conversation about Africanity, Global Africa, cultural memory, identity, language, Afrophobia, belonging, resistance, and African self-determination.
His work invites us to consider an important question at the heart of the volume:
How do African people understand themselves, their histories, and their connections to one another through African-centered intellectual and cultural frameworks?
Through the UWP Scholar Spotlight Series, readers move beyond the chapter title to encounter the scholars, questions, intellectual traditions, and research behind the scholarship.
ABOUT TRANSCENDENTAL AFRICANITY
Transcendental Africanity: The Key to Defeating Afrophobia and Reclaiming Global Africa brings together ten chapters by nine scholars examining the enduring connections among Africans and Afro-descendants while confronting the historical and contemporary forces that have produced separation, displacement, and Afrophobia.
The volume creates an interdisciplinary space for thinking about Africanity, identity, culture, language, historical memory, belonging, resistance, sovereignty, and African self-determination while asking what these ideas might mean for the future of Global Africa.
The book offers relevance for African Studies, Africana Studies, Black Studies, African Diaspora Studies, Africology, History, Political Science, Cultural Studies, Language Studies, and related interdisciplinary fields.

Link Up Podcast — Ep 13 | Ft Ɛna Njideka Karmo (Wombmanhood, Fawohodiesua & Repatriation)
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 Ɛna Njideka Karmo, a Blacktastic educator, warrior scholar, mother and builder whose work centers Wombmanhood, Black-centered education, and the journey back home to Abibiman. Ɛna Njideka takes us through her path from the Midwest in the snakkkes, to her educational travels, and the Black study that helped sharpen her sense of self, purpose, and service.
We discuss the development of Fawohodiesua, her work teaching young sisters into Wombmanhood, the need for rites of passage, Motherland Immersion, livit, and the importance of preparing our young people mentally, spiritually, and physically for who they are. The conversation also answers why repatriation requires more than talk — it requires an exit plan, a village, and institutions strong enough to raise the next generation Black to Black.
This is a conversation about Wombmanhood, Fawohodiesua, repatriation, ancestral guidance, and the work required to build the educational and cultural foundations our daughters and future generations deserve.
If you would like to support the ongoing BlackPowerful work discussed, feel free to reach out to Ɛna Njideka Karmo: www.fawohodiesua.com / fawohodiesua@gmail.com
