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 Amn and Mama Nuru, a specBlackcular couple raised jew york's 1960-70's Black Power era, rooted in Ma'at, and actively building toward repatriation to Ghana. Both came up surrounded by Afros, daishikis, campus protests, and the scholarship of Nana Ben, Nana John Henrik Clarke, and Nana Amos Wilson — and never left the fight. They share a mud cloth hat, a government building greeting, and a shared BlackPowerful circle pulled them back together. We discuss their travels across Abibiman — from occupied Kemet to Ghana to Burkina Faso — their experience on the Sankɔfa Journey, the community ceremonies that marked their spirits, and their commitment to purchasing land in the xmnw Medjay Community. The conversation also moves through the Ghana citizenship discussion, the importance of organized Black community over isolated individual consciousness, Mdw Ntr study, language, and what it means to return home not as tourists but as builders.

* 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.
