Making Twi a Household language, Integrating African Culture & Identity in Mixed Heritage Families: The Birth of Destination Africa

In this episode snippet, Adrian and Michael discuss the importance of passing on your culture, heritage and the language of your parents to your children. In this instance, passing on Twi to their kids. 

We also explore the dangers of not teaching kids your foreign language and the benefits and advantages for them when they grow up or want to invest and relocate in Ghana or the African Continent.

When you translate a language, sometimes you lose the full meaning of that language.
