Every creative parent nurtures a secret hope: to one day be surpassed by their protégé. Today, I humbly accept my gold watch. Ijeamaka has officially put me out of business. Enjoy her piece published in the Diaspora magazine. ourdiasporastories.com/post/igbo-lang…

🫂🌍Too African for here; too Western for home. A quiet tension many of us carry, in accents, in silence, in how we show up. You float between cultures, never fully landing. Have you felt this too? Let’s talk about it. #ourdiasporastories

Home is not just a place 🏡🌍 It's the smell of Sunday stew, the lull of familiar voices But when you're far away, everything shifts. Some days it’s the silence. Other days, it’s the joy of growing and grieving at the same time. What’s the hardest part of being away for you?

We are the stories our people will tell. But what will they say about us? 📜 If your great-grandchildren found your story buried in time, what would they learn about your courage? Would they see the quiet battles you fought? The risks you took to belong? To bloom? To believe?

"Here we come, Botswana!" Or, in Michael's voice, "Here I come." There’s something powerful about the places that call to us, even before we step foot on their soil. For Michael, Botswana is more than a dream destination; it’s a quiet longing. Tag someone who needs a trip
