Publisher's Synopsis
A JOURNEY OF A LIFETIME
In this reflective collection of poetry and prose, poet Zakiyyah G.E. Capehart weaves words, emotions and images as she recounts her soul-stirring journey to Ghana in 2018. Beautiful, inspiring, and empowering, Ghana On My Mind sweeps readers away on an international journey highlighting the culture, customs, architecture, scenery, and of course, the beautiful and friendly people of Ghana. From reflecting on her role as an elder, to her initial loathed reaction to shopping in the markets, Capehart inspires us to research, study, and experience the beauty of Ghana and Africa for ourselves.
