In this special international edition of Convo Cafe, we sit down with Dr. Omari Jackson, professor at Towson University, as he joins us live from Ghana. Dr. Jackson is currently on the ground conducting research on Black individuals who have repatriated—leaving behind their home countries, particularly the U.S., to build new lives in Ghana.
From heartfelt motivations and cultural rediscoveries to the complexities of identity and integration, Dr. Jackson shares firsthand insights from the people reclaiming a sense of home on African soil. We explore what’s driving this modern-day migration, what it reveals about the global Black experience, and how Ghana is welcoming its diasporic sons and daughters.
Whether you're considering a move to the Motherland or just curious about this powerful wave of reconnection, this episode offers an inspiring and thought-provoking conversation from across the Atlantic.
