Trump made a miscalucation thinking Iran would fold like Iraq, now he is in a long war that will probably have impacts on the USA soil.

He is the founder of the Ancestor Project and the Nkyinkyim Museum in Ghana. His sculptural work has gained international recognition for documenting African historical experience and confronting the enduring legacies of enslavement, colonialism, war, genocide, and displacement. Through art, symbolism, and public memory, he has helped create powerful spaces for reflection, restoration, and consciousness.In this moving moment from the 3rd Abibitumi Awards, Kwame Akoto-Bamfo reflects on nearly two decades of activism and explains why this recognition is especially meaningful. Though he has received awards before, he makes clear that honor carries its deepest significance when it comes from home.

Hundreds of historic diasporans living in Ghana are sounding the alarm over the rising cost and growing barriers to acquiring Ghanaian citizenship. For many, the dream of repatriation is being undermined by excessive fees, difficult requirements, and policies that leave people feeling excluded rather than welcomed.In this video, Ɔbenfo Ọbádélé Kambon speaks on the sidelines of the Historic African Diaspora Town Hall Meeting about the frustrations many are experiencing, including the GHS 25,000 citizenship fee that has become a major obstacle for families, elders, and long-term residents who planned to build their lives in Ghana.The conversation goes beyond paperwork. It raises serious questions about belonging, policy, development, and whether symbolic gestures toward the diaspora are being matched by real substance. If Ghana is serious about reparative justice and meaningful repatriation, then the concerns of historic diasporans must be heard and addressed.This is not just about citizenship. It is about Black unity, accountability, and building a future rooted in justice.

Will Iran join China, Russia and the United States as a fourth major power on the world stage? Iran's resilience in the face of the U.S.-Israeli war is already shifting the global balance of power, says American political scientist Robert Pape. "What you are seeing with Iran is that its geography, in combination with a level of drone technology that we simply cannot destroy," is demonstrating to other countries that they may not have to stay beholden to U.S. hegemony. "What makes us think we're really going to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear power in the next six months or a year?" asks Pape. "Iran is far stronger than it was just 40 days ago. It is in control of 20% of the world's oil. It is now an emerging fourth center of power. … The United States is on one side, and the rivals are China, Russia and now Iran."

In this powerful episode of the *Raw Success Podcast*, we sit down with Afiya Mbilishaka, psychology expert and founder of PsychoHairapy, to explore the deep connection between mental health, culture, and identity.
Afiya breaks down how traditional psychology frameworks were not designed with the Black community in mind—and how that gap has impacted the way mental health is understood, treated, and even stigmatized. We dive into the origins of these systems, the cultural disconnect, and why representation and culturally relevant approaches are essential for real healing.
This conversation goes beyond theory. Afiya shares how PsychoHairapy is redefining therapy by creating safe, culturally affirming spaces—starting with something as personal and symbolic as hair. From generational trauma to self-expression, this episode challenges the status quo and opens the door for a new perspective on mental wellness.
If you're interested in mental health, cultural awareness, and breaking cycles that no longer serve us, this is a must-watch.
🎯 In this episode, we cover:
* Why mainstream psychology often misses the mark in the Black community
* The cultural roots of mental health stigma
* How PsychoHairapy is changing the game
* The connection between hair, identity, and healing
* Tools for building culturally aware mental wellness practices

Our heroes are their enemies and their heroes are our enemies. Who decides which heroes we honor? Who decides what films we will watch? Who decides who we will look up to? Who decides whose statues stand on our campuses, whose stories are told on screen, and whose images shape the minds of our children?In this powerful conversation, Ɔbenfo Ọbádélé Bakari Kambon breaks down the politics of soft power, from the Gandhi Must Fall movement at the University of Ghana to the deeper question of why Black people must choose, honor, document, and project our own heroes.This discussion moves through statues, murals, film, Kmt, Nana Amanirenas, Nana Malcolm X, Nana Nat Turner, Nana Yaa Asantewaa, Nana Marcus Garvey, Nana Kwame Nkrumah, Nana Thomas Sankara, Nana Patrice Lumumba, Nana Harriet Tubman, Nana Jean-Jacques Dessalines, and the ongoing work of building institutions that tell our stories for ourselves.The message is clear: those who control images control minds. If we want our stories told truthfully, we must document our own grandmothers, grandfathers, artists, builders, freedom fighters, healers, teachers, and visionaries.Learn more about the mural project: https://www.abibitumi.com/traoreLearn more about repatriation support:https://www.r2gh.comWatch and upload Black-centered content:https://www.abibitumitv.comJoin the Abibitumi community:https://www.abibitumi.comTopics covered:Gandhi Must Fall, soft power, statues, Black heroes, Abibifahodie Film Festival, Ibrahim Traoré mural, Black storytelling, Kmt, Abibitumi, repatriation, documentaries, Ghana, Burkina Faso, cultural memory, and why we must give our people their flowers while they are still here.Hashtags:#abibitumi #blackpower #abibifahodie #gandhimustfall #blackheroes #africanfilm #ghana #burkinafaso #repatriation #blackstorytelling #softpower #kmt #abibitumitv
