In episode 68 of Global Majority for Peace, Nigerian investigative journalist David Hundeyin, founder of West Africa Weekly and The Spearhead @spearhead_af joins Ileana Chan to discuss his journey from award-winning journalism to political exile and the brutal reality of U.S. imperialism in Africa.

David traces his political awakening to his father's preventable death, which launched him into a confrontation with the Nigerian establishment and a career of full-contact investigative journalism. He details his explosive exposé of Nigeria's current president as a convicted U.S. drug dealer and CIA asset, the subsequent lawsuit against the CIA, FBI, and DEA, and how he was placed on a no-fly list after the 2020 Lekki massacre before fleeing into exile.

Together, Ileana and David explore what it truly means to be a politically conscious journalist in an age of empire, the revolutionary potential of the Alliance of Sahel States, and whether the multipolar world offers the Global South a genuine path out of dependency.

What does it really mean for Ghana to welcome the historic diaspora home?In this powerful town hall discussion, speakers address the urgent need to remove the financial and bureaucratic barriers standing in the way of citizenship and repatriation, including the GHS 25,000 processing fee, DNA testing requirements, and the lack of direct historic diaspora representation in decision-making spaces. The conversation goes beyond policy to deal with dignity, self-respect, self-repair, and the deeper question of what it means for Black people to reconnect, rebuild, and reclaim place, purpose, and pride.This video explores:• the call to scrap costly and tedious citizenship requirements• why return should not be treated as a privilege only for those who can afford it• the importance of representation for the historic diaspora in national policy• reparations, self-repair, and practical steps toward healing and reconnection• how Ghana can move from symbolic statements to concrete actionThis is not just about economics. It is about restoring dignity, removing obstacles, and creating real pathways home.Watch, share, and join the conversation.#ghana #diaspora #citizenship #repatriation #blackpower #historicdiaspora #returnhome #reparations #selfrepair #abibitumi

African hair was never just about appearance. It carried identity, culture, and meaning. Colonialism and slavery disrupted that, stripped it down, and replaced it with a system that taught African women to see their natural hair as something to fix, manage, or hide.What we now call preference did not appear out of nowhere. It was shaped over time, reinforced through schools, workplaces, and media, until straight hair became the standard and everything else had to adjust.So the real question is not what African women are choosing today. The question is why those choices feel necessary, and who defined that necessity in the first place.If there is any real conversation to be had, it is this: how much of what we call beauty is actually ours, and how much of it was imposed on us.
