The Masculinity Project: Remix: 10 Days In Africa 10mins

Produced by Regi Allen. Remix produced & edited by Sabrina Gordon.

When Regi Allen steps off the plane in Accra nothing at all is what he expected. In this energetic look at the link between the past and the present, between African American and African, Allen journeys in musings through unfamiliar surroundings with a craving for understanding long-before nurtured. Through tours of slave forts, pool side parties with diplomats, and traditional ceremonies with kings, Allen asks questions about identity that reveal as much as they complicate.
