Chapter One : THE NEW BEGINNING
1957 - 1969
Chapter One surrounds early memories of Ghana post-independence. It embodies the vibrancy of Ghana embarking on a new journey of independence but also the frictions as the once segmented nation must move as one. Childhood memories will narrate this segment, drawing on experiences growing up in Ash Town (a major town in Ghana’s old capital, Kumasi) from 1961 to 1966 to being part of Ghana’s Young Pioneers in Accra and parading with Kwame Nkrumah. The rise of Highlife Music across west Africa is explored in addition to the term ‘the New African’.
