I want to make clear that Ghanaian people welcome our diaspora. I personally have seen our land taken and given to Black Americans without remorse. So I'm asking on behalf of a nation, that the diaspora be responsible in their return to the lands of our ancestors.
The other day I commented on the post of a Black American male who was asking about moving outside the US. He specifically mentioned "repatriating" to Ghana. As a Ghanaian who has seen our land stolen by Black Americans, I commented and was blocked.

I inadvertently told my kids I have never met my biological father. My son said "that's kinda sad"" and I responded, "I've met enough men", instinctively. My daughter immediately said"TEA".

My kids are so young, they thought Iron Heart was made because Robert Downey Jr. died the way Black Panther was made when Chadwick Boseman died.
I was in SHAMBLES when I had to tell them Chadwick died.

It’s unknown exactly why spinner dolphins spin, but it could be to communicate, attract mates, or shake off parasites. Some researchers also think they might do it just for fun."

I'm so jealous of women that can participate/be active at their kids school functions. I have a wonderful support group of fellow moms, but I have to work and I always feel bad I have to be away.

Before you joke about buying fast food when you're poor, realize that door dash has a number of grocery and pharmacy locations available for use. Considering the defunding of food banks and public healthcare, if you're sick or hungry with no safety net, this would be welcome.
