⁣Link Up Podcast — Ep 10 | Ft Baba Kweku and Mama Yaa (The Scotts) (Coaching, Community, 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 Baba Kweku (Jeff) and Ɛna Yaa (Lenore) — The Scotts — a specBlackular couple raised in Philly, met at Lincoln University, married and continue to grow a Black family. They take us through their upbringing, experiences in predominately Black neighborhoods, learning of their ancestry, raising Black children and participating in various community projects together.

We discuss their move from Philly to New Jersey, and preparation towards repatriation. Along the lines, we learn about the work and travel they've done while coaching a track team that has produced Olympians, as well as their Journey to the Blackland with their adult children and grandson, preparing the next generation with passports and dual citizenship, growing food, joining the Abibitumi/Repatriate to Ghana (R2GH) community, and why returning home works best when we build together instead of trying to do it alone.

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!

Sanctions against China’s Huawei failed, birthed "Delete America" campaign across China
Sanctions against China’s Huawei failed, birthed "Delete America" campaign across China Kwabena Ofori Osei 56 Views • 2 years ago

Five years following strict technology exports bans aimed at Huawei, a Chinese electronics and telecommunications giant, the company is stronger and more profitable than ever. What's more, Huawei and thousands of other companies across China have embraced a "Delete America" strategy from all their supply chains.

Some officials maintain that the bans on Huawei exports and contracting have been successful, however, and point to laws that require US government contractors, the Pentagon, and allied countries to "rip and replace" Huawei gear from communications networks.

However, almost no real progress there has been made, as only a small percentage of US government contractors have made the switch, the Pentagon has asked for and received waivers each year so they do not have to comply, and our allies have flatly refused to replace Huawei telecommunications equipment.

When surveyed, Americans report historic low levels of confidence in our institutions, with corresponding high levels of distrust. Officials promised that tariffs will not lead to higher prices, that national security concerns necessitate banning affordable Chinese electric cars, and that Huawei represents a grave threat to the country. American citizens seem to reject most of those positions, as they continue to buy Chinese-made products in high volumes, and express to pollsters their hope to buy Chinese vehicles. As to Huawei, even the Pentagon and our biggest contractors are sticking with Huawei gear, given more costly alternatives.

Eat Moringa Powder DAILY For 2 Weeks, See What Happens To Your Body
Eat Moringa Powder DAILY For 2 Weeks, See What Happens To Your Body Kwadwo Danmeara Tòkunbọ̀ Datɛ 61 Views • 2 years ago

The Health Benefits Of Moringa Powder.

Originally from India's Himalayan foothills, the "Miracle Tree"—moringa—has proven to be a formidable and hardy plant that has spread all over the tropical regions of the globe.

According to some sources, moringa has seven times the vitamin C of oranges, ten times the vitamin A of carrots, and twenty-five times the iron of spinach.

However, its benefits extend far beyond nutritional supplementation. Moringa's potential to support chronic disease prevention, enhance heart health, and promote skin and digestive health underscores its importance in our diets.

But do the health benefits of this magical plant that everyone seems to be raving about really exist? Well, in today's video, we will find out in detail.

✍ Summary:
Nutrient-Rich
Moringa powder, derived from the dried leaves of the Moringa oleifera tree, is a powerhouse of nutrients, making it one of the most nutrient-dense foods available.


According to research, individuals who perform regular physical activities need about 2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight to repair their muscles. In a 100-gram dry leaf moringa powder, you get almost 27 grams of protein, making it an excellent plant source of protein.

Antioxidant Abundance


The antioxidant content in Moringa powder is impressive. For instance, it contains about 17 milligrams of vitamin C per 100 grams, a potent antioxidant that helps repair tissue, enhance iron absorption, and boost the immune system. Vitamin E, another antioxidant present in moringa powder, helps protect cell membranes against oxidative damage. Vitamin A, with its 9,620 international units per 100 grams in Moringa powder, not only supports vision and immune health but also acts as an antioxidant.

Lowers Blood Sugar Levels


Chlorogenic acid, present in significant amounts in Moringa powder, plays a pivotal role in blood sugar management. It does this by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme alpha-glucosidase, which breaks down carbohydrates into glucose in the digestive system. By slowing carbohydrate breakdown, the release of glucose into the bloodstream is moderated, preventing sudden spikes in blood sugar levels.

Moreover, chlorogenic acid enhances the sensitivity of cells to insulin, the hormone responsible for glucose uptake from the bloodstream into cells. Improved insulin sensitivity means that cells are better able to respond to insulin, thereby facilitating the removal of glucose from the blood more efficiently. This mechanism further aids in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels.

Improves Cholesterol Levels

Moringa powder influences cholesterol through its rich content of antioxidants, such as beta-sitosterol, a plant sterol with a structure similar to cholesterol. Beta-sitosterol competes with dietary cholesterol for absorption in the digestive system, effectively reducing the amount of cholesterol that enters the bloodstream. By limiting cholesterol absorption, moringa powder helps in lowering the total cholesterol levels, including LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, often referred to as "bad" cholesterol due to its association with an increased risk of heart disease.

Protects Against Arsenic Toxicity
Moringa powder contains specific compounds capable of chelating, or binding, heavy metals, thereby reducing their bioavailability and facilitating their excretion from the body. Among these, compounds like flavonoids, phenolic acids, and certain proteins have been identified for their chelating properties. These substances attach to heavy metals, preventing them from interacting with other essential biological molecules and helping to safely remove them from the body.

The Black Agenda Historic Diaspora Town Hall: Citizenship, Repatriation, and Self-Reparations
The Black Agenda Historic Diaspora Town Hall: Citizenship, Repatriation, and Self-Reparations Ọbádélé Kambon 31 Views • 6 months ago

Pan-African TV News ReportHistoric diasporans, scholars, and community leaders came together at the University of Ghana for a powerful town hall meeting on citizenship, repatriation, and the future of Black unity on the continent. Organized by The Black Agenda in collaboration with the Institute of African Studies, the gathering focused on one urgent question: how can historic diasporans return home and contribute fully if colonial-era barriers are still standing in the way?Speakers challenged the monetary and legal obstacles placed before historic diasporans seeking citizenship, arguing that these policies discourage return, block investment, and undermine the call for reconnection. The discussion also pushed beyond Ghana alone, calling for African leaders and continental institutions to take up the matter so that repatriation is treated not as an isolated national issue, but as a shared African responsibility.The event tied citizenship directly to reparative justice, self-reparations, and the right of scattered African descendants to come home without punishment, exclusion, or unnecessary burdens. The message was clear: the time has come for African laws and institutions to reflect the reality that Africa is one and indivisible, and that historic diasporans must be welcomed back in substance, not just in words.Hashtags:#repatriation #historicdiasporans #ghanacitizenship #blackagenda #universityofghana #reparativejustice #selfreparations #returntoafrica #blackunity #africaisone #diasporacitizenship #instituteofafricanstudies

Wisdom isn't found in one person (Anansi Storytelling)
Wisdom isn't found in one person (Anansi Storytelling) Kwabena Ofori Osei 86 Views • 4 years ago

Wisdom isn't found in one person
Anansi shows God how a lie can be more hurtful than a wound. God realizes that wisdom cannot be found in one person. He rewards Anansi by naming all stories Anansi stories.

The storyteller
Kwame Sakyi
More from this storyteller: Interview with Kwame Sakyi (b)

Wisdom isn't found in one person (Twi)
Once upon if time God lived in his cottage. The name of the cottage was: There's no one besides me. Kwaku Anansi also lived in a cottage not so far away from him. The name of his cottage was: Wisdom isn't found in one person. They became good friends. One day kwaku Anansi asked God: 'What is more painful: the incision of Tribal marks or to be falsely accused of something?' God answered that a blade would cut your flesh, but when you are falsely accused of something you could just walk away and deny it. One day Kwaku Anansi went to God's cottage and relieved himselve on the stove. The next morning God's mother-in-law found the mess and was shocked and told everybody in the village. Meanwhile Kwaku Anansi hired the Rat to digg a tunnel to the room where God kept his talking drums. That same day the drums started talking and saying that God had done the deed. God couldn't bare the false accusations and wanted to kill himself. Kwaku Anansi reminded him of their conversation and God realised that false accusations could be as painful as the incisions of tribal marks. God now understood why Kwaku Anansi had named his cottage: Wisdom isn't found in one person. And from then on assigned all stories to his name. That is how all stories became Anansie stories.
