I have watched a few of the Webnation interviews and the host is so kind and patient. When the guests mention negatives and downsides of Ghana, he doesn't take it personally, he doesn't get defensive for Ghana, he doesn't become closed-minded. He is very open and receptive. He goes further and asks the guests to share some ways that they think can help improve the challenges. If everyone can be encouraged to develop that attitude then working together will be easier. I think he's good for Ghana and that he enjoys bringing people together. I'm not in Ghana and have never been. If I did I'd want to talk with him. He has such a positive vibe! 👏🏽🌍🙏🏽

Good content but If I could give some technical advice, plan you shoot so that the subjects are at the same height. Also if you have only a one camera setup, do a two shot and edit a close up in post of the subject or the moderator as cut-a-ways. This will eliminate the slow pan back and forth from host to guest. Finally, cut down on the headroom so that the guest and host are primary in the shot. A good technical presentation is as important as the content.

I love this topic. A lot of insight. I'm in Ghana so many times due to my NGO. I have the issues of many women who think I'm mixed because of my curly hair. They stop & stare. It's like hair is hair take care of it. I don't have Ghanaian DNA in me but; I understand the insight of hair being cut versus white. Im a Dr. Sociologist. Also I get treated with top service down to deliveries. Being that my NGO is a USA company not Ghanaian even though I registered it. I don't like that my staff who are highly paid don't get treated the way I do when I'm not around. I get this all the time. People want to work for me because I'm an American. We pay above and treat them differently. The only disagreement I have is that identity in the hair does not mean they don't like having short hair. I have done a study sense 2017 with young girls in Ghana. There are young women in other cultural's with long hair, and they want short hair - but they see their identity is not just in hair.

How banku and Fetri detsi are overrated, and overrated above what? Let neutral people feel free to make their choices and freely fall in love with all the different ethnic Ghanaian food across the board. In Ghana today, efforts are being openly displayed to diminish the cultures that had created these foods - akple with pepper and tilapia, and akple and okro soup. A Ghanaian content creator Ivy Prosper had come under attack from some quarters of our society for being "tribalistic" when she visited Afadzato - the mountain - and claimed that it is the tallest mountain in West Africa, and that claim had been her crime as far as these myopic and selfish people are concerned. She claimed the same people said nothing when she had visited their region and covered all the good things. Our diversity is our real "gold".

People with limited knowledge of our Ghanaian history want to come and tell us our history. Our ancestral mothers were hardworking women who will go on the farms to work then carry firewoods on their heads home to cook. They will go and fetch water and carry the water on their heads. There is no way they were keeping long hair otherwise they could not have carried on those duties easily and this was long before the colonizers came to Africa or Ghana. Every picture we have of our past queen mothers and present ones shows that they had low haircuts. This was long before the colonizers came to Ghana. Even up till today, our queen mothers have mostly low haircut. This should tell us that it was not the colonizers that mandated female low haircut in Ghana. Besides the colonizers did not capture everybody in Ghana to demand that all females should have low haircut. This alone should tell people that girls low haircut has nothing to do with the colonizers. It has been practiced earlier. I challenge any of these latter-day Ghanaian history ' lectures' who did not attend School in Ghana to provide pictures on which our ancestral mothers were wearing long hair.

It is because of they fought for civil rights movement, that’s why we all can benefit from traveling abroad. The sacrifices they made is the reason we are all enjoying certain privileges. Why is it ok for Indians, Lebanese, Chinese girls to leave their hair long but not Ghanaian girls? That’s where self hating starts and blacks girls start wearing wigs. It’s really a shame to subject our girls to having low self esteem issues. We Africans treat foreigners better than our own. Sad 😢 This attitude of always attacking each other is really shameful. We have no patience for each other, no compassion for each other, we are always tearing each other down, deceive each other and go as far as kill each other. Self hate hate is a disease that has been destroyed blacks. I am very happy someone like her is beginning to have these work shops to help our lost souls to begin to heal and start loving who we are as a people.

I'm sure short haircuts were worn as well as longer. It would have depended on whatever. Photos give only literally a snapshot in time.

She seems to be generalizing Ghanaian young people. I was born, raised, and attended school in Ghana. I'm a Ghanaian and raised in ACCRA. Some Ghanaians have more better life than some Black South Africans.

No one is stripping young Ghanaians girls of their identities when they keep their hair low-cut. School is not a fashion show where the hair counts. You need more time focusing on your education.

Ghanaians school girls with short hair is from the inception of the colonial establishment of schools in Ghana. Just like the Ghana judges still wearing those white wigs that even the British has abandoned. If you didn’t know then now you know.

@@missbabyloved7531 You can believe what you like. Your mentality on everything which doesn't fit your lifestyle being colonial is what is keeping you from moving forward. School Girls in Ghana are expected to spend more time on their education than looking like people having a catwalk. What time will boarding school girls have on hairdo? Will the parents go and campuses to fix their children hair ? Or they will leave campus and go to beauty salons to get their hair done?. AA should know the history behind the way every African country do what they do and stop blaming everything Africans do on whatever the colonizers left behind. I guess very soon we will hear that children not allowed to talk back to parents in Ghana as they do in the US is also colonial mindset . We don't need you to tell us what is good for our culture just as we don't tell you what is good for your culture. Don't come and lecture us. Your superiority complex is just out out of touch.

@@missbabyloved7531 You need to focus more on your broken society then pointing your finger on others. The topic here is about school children having low haircut. It is not about judges. Talking about colonizers , let me remind you of what the AA , the so-called Americo-Liberians, treated the Indigenous Liberians in the past, when they went to settle in Liberia. If you don't know, try and read about it.

@@benbo7042 my dear you need to do away with this your myopic thinking and learn your past and accept the mess and it’s only through this that you can librate yourself and your people. I am 💯 Akan from E/R Ghana and the truth is the truth. I don’t blame you because I know most Ghanaians are in denial of how colonization has taking away the critical thinking parts of their brain. Appreciate the truth and stop continuing the ignorance in this 22nd century.

It seems that some of you are tired of fighting the white people in your countries and are focusing your energy to come and fight our way of living in Ghana. You think you know of our history more than we do and that you should lecture us on our lifestyle. Those of you who feel that way really need help . If anything, we are the ones in better position to lecture you because we know more than you. If you want to live among us in Ghana, you are ones who should adapt to our lifestyle and not the other way round.

If anyone wants to talk to Ghanaians about how the colonizers did bla ,bla, and bla, and it's robbing us of bla,bla and bla , that person should have the decency to communicate with Ghanaians in one of the local languages in Ghana. You are using the same colonizers language to communicate with Ghanaians yet you don't see anything wrong with that. If everything that the colonizers brought was detrimental, why communicate in colonizers language with people who have their own languages? Shouldn't it be viewed as you helping to promote the colonizers vision? Hypocrisy at its best.

Most of us do not know any Ghanaian languages so of course communication would be in English. Also the opinion will be the same
