⁣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.

He outlines the Secretariat’s seven pillars—storytelling, cinema, music, cuisine, aesthetics, heritage/culture, and literary works—and highlights its role in attracting investment into the creative economy and tourism ecosystem to strengthen infrastructure and long-term development.He stresses that the Black Star Experience is bigger than entertainment or “Dirty December,” calling on brothers and sisters in the diaspora to view Ghana not merely as a place to visit, but as a home to reconnect with spiritually and a place to build with purpose. In the follow-up, he connects this cultural rebranding to the 2026–2036 Decade of Our Repatriation, explaining how government agencies are working together to support repatriation, encourage investment, and foster collaboration between returnees and local Ghanaians to develop the land for future generations.
