We often glamorize African Americans who relocate to Africa; however, one of the seldom discussed challenges is making friends. Sometimes, this is the first time you realize that it's culture, not color that connects us.

In this episode we explore cross cultural relationships, the challenges, and journey of it all in Ghana.

We sit down with Neil Oku, CEO of Golden Coast Developers to discuss the transition from corporate life in the U.S. to real estate development in Ghana.

From building Ghana's first smart homes, to a 200 unit, Afro-future luxury development, Neil gives us inside tips to identity, entrepreneurship, and hope for the diaspora.

Before we can talk about community, we have to talk about identity.

In this debut episode of The Blakprint, co-hosts Awura Abena Agyeman and Tim Swain open up about how their continental African and diasporan identities were formed by religion, culture, and experiences.

Through storytelling, theology, comedy, and wisdom, they pull back the curtain on what it’s like to navigate multiple cultural and spiritual identities.

In this episode:

• What happens when the diaspora meets the continent
• Identity formation in African & Black American contexts
• The embarrassing, confusing, and holy moments that define us

We will ask questions, laugh at the chaos, educate and create the blakprint of who we’re becoming. This is just the beginning.
