Our Motherland Africa

GHANA / An entry in the WorldPride 2025 + OUR PRIDE Short Film Fest: A lyrical video and visual protest that challenges the violent myth that homosexuality is “unAfrican.”

I made this video to reclaim what was erased and to speak directly to the motherland from a place of truth, pain and pride.

Blending poetry, music, and a bold face, the piece reclaims erased queer histories and speaks directly to the African continent.

Both personal and political, the work is a call to remember, resist, and re-root in the fullness of African identity.
