Registration for Africanness, Blackness, and Belonging: A Pan-African Community Conversation

Africa. Jamaica. America. Brazil. Cuba. Jamaica. England. Germany. France. As Black people born in Africa and in diaspora, we have a shared ancestry and also different experiences of Africanness, Blackness, and belonging that we don’t get many chances to talk to each other about. This first event in our Pan-African Community Conversations series invites indigenous Africans and Africa’s descendants to forget the Detty December hype and get real about living with each other in Ghana. It’s time for us to learn from each other about our different historical relationships to colonization, enslavement, separation from family and land, and our stories of resilience, love, and joy. Khuba International, Library of Africa and the African Diaspora, and the Black Womanhood (Re-)Affirmation Project have planned an evening of dinner and story circles that will allow us to share our stories and really listen to one another. Bring an open heart and join us!
