Living in Southern Ghana, the Land of Kente | |
| Videos |
The West African
nation of Ghana is comprised of over 50 different ethnic groups who speak
nearly 100 distinct languages. But Ghana's identity is closely related to
the Akan, a number of related peoples who live in Southern Ghana and nearby
Ivory Coast. The history of the Akan and their rich culture informs this
portrait of modern Ghana. Special attention is paid to traditional art, to
the importance of proverbs, and to Ghanaian craftsmanship. Produced in
cooperation
with the North Carolina Museum of Art. 33:30
