    _________________________________________________________________________________
    After many years of celebrating the diaspora and interviewing prominent diasporans, we have decided to set up the Diaspora Transition. The Diaspora Transition Network is a membership-based network for African Diasporans and returnees of various heritage currently residing in Ghana. This network will be a community for information sharing, skills exchange, cultural awareness, and a space for doing and discussing business. The Network will consist of quarterly meetings and social events to build a community of like-minded professionals. To be part of this initiative,
    kindly complete the survey via:

    ___________________________________________________________________________
    Nana Ama Addo or ‘Asiedua’ is a Ghanaian-American storyteller and the founder of Asiedua’s Imprint, a lifestyle brand that provides creative and repatriation resources for people of the African diaspora.
    As her brand’s tagline ‘Finding Beauty Between Worlds’ suggests, she is the product of a Ghanaian father and an African American mother, and has always danced between these two cultures. While visiting Ghana for the first time in 2014, where she met family members and connected with the creative energy of the country, she was inspired to spend more time in the land. After a series of prolonged stays in Ghana, Asiedua finally packed her journal and repatriated from her home city, Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly Love, to Ghana, to contribute to the country’s growing creative economy.
    Today, she lives in Accra, where she is a full-time entrepreneur and artist. In addition to managing Asiedua’s Imprint and her creative agency ‘Chi: The Agency’, Asiedua is gearing up to release her debut single ‘All In’, which tells a story about Ghana repatriation, and the short film ‘The Return’, an experience that explores the mystical journey of a goddess who escapes the concrete jungle and reconnects with her ‘Warrior King’ Ghana.

    Having known Nana Ama for several years now she has grown so much and is one of the brightest people I know. She is the Best of Both Worlds. A true African and African-American in vibration and spirit. She will be one of the Great Sisters that we will talk about years from now who helped bridge the gap between Africans and African-Americans. Dentaa is Great also. I met her at the Black Star International Film Festival in 2018 and she is still pushing forward greatly! Thank you to two beautiful intelligent Sistas!!!

    You would think after their painful history in America they would be paralyzed with fear,hate,self doubt,negativity,self pity and all the other negative isms, but look at them,clearly the best we of African descent have ever been(and it is not about their accent or looks). They fill me with so much hope and a very strong sense of victory. They were finally invited back to their roots and many of them (by the thousands)have made that glorious pilgrimage. Regardless of which country in Africa they visit I believe they will find that they are loved. Akwaaba.

      It’s a great joy to be home, living out my purpose & passion and gaining more from life than I would have done had I stayed in the Western Hemisphere. Journeying through the East side of Africa to the West side wasn’t an easy road but I have no regrets! I trust the divine timing of my life. And more importantly I create a way where there’s no way! In order to live a peaceful and prosperous life right here in Ghana. Africa is home. Awaiting its creators.

    This was a real down to earth conversation between two sisters in my opinion. I enjoyed every bit of it. "I remember the sound of brooms sweeping the yards early in the mornings" . She hit a spot with that. She also mentioned that Africans in the west had enough and are ready to return to the motherland and that's a fact. Keep doing your thing Odana .

    We Africans need to stop this business of overcharging foreigners especially the black diaspora. The one thing i like about the Western World is that generally prices are displayed. We lack foresight because as we overcharge individuals, they will likely not return and if they share that price discrimination with their friends and family they also will be hesitant to visit. There are over 200 countries to visit so we should treat visitors with grace. I can understand price tiers at museums, game parks etc but not at markets and shops where you buy necessities.

      This horrible way of thinking also permeates some of our leaders on the continent. Focus on selling our resources dirt cheap for short term windfalls instead of having a plan to make sure we practice value addition which is costly but more beneficial in the long run.

Because the political leadership, the political structure are such, they shape that atmosphere of refuge, compare to Togo at East of Ghana where since 60 years the same terror regime has made the death, the persecution, the ruin, the violence against the people of Togo, a core principles of governance. Thus, our parents are kill under the bloody rule of the father and as soon as the son, the bloody dictator took over, our lives are ruin, persecute. Thus generations after generations we must be born as Togolese to be condemn unless we spouse the deadly ideology at the root of the bloody tyranny. Therefore Ghana in West Africa is a place of refuge.
