⁣Link Up Podcast — Ep 11 (part 2) | Ft Ɔbenfo Ọbádélé Bakari Kambon (Abibitumi Conference, Abibiwiase, Film Festival, Open D.O.O.R. Dialogues)
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 again with Ɔbenfo Ọbádélé Bakari Kambon for Part 2 of our Episode 11 discussion. This portion centers on the expanding institutional work growing out of Abibitumi, including the upcoming Abibitumi Conference, the Abibitumi/Abibifahodie Film Festival, the developing Abibiwiase television show, and the Open D.O.O.R. Dialogues. Ɔbenfo explains how these projects are connected through the larger mission of creating Black spaces that are not just online, but physical, organized, and rooted in Black liberation work.

We discuss the origins of the film festival, the need for independent Black-controlled media spaces, the transition from the original Film Festival idea into the Abibitumi/Abibifahodie Film Festival, and the development of Abibiwiase as an upcoming television show. The conversation also moves through the Open D.O.O.R. Dialogues, including the role of the University of Ghana, the College of Humanities, and endorsements from major Ghana institutions. This is a conversation about building Black venues, Black media, Black conferences, Black festivals, and Black institutional power without waiting for stench approval.

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.

Feel free to share your thoughts, and Link Up!
