๐ **Celebrating Black History Today: Honoring Edwin Sheppard** ๐ In 2019, we had the privilege of connecting with Edwin Sheppard, the visionary behind the Blindfolded International Student & Cultural Exchange Program (BISCEP). Edwin's dedication to cultural awareness and understanding has left an indelible mark on our hearts and communities. As the founder & CEO of BISCEP, Edwin's passion for bridging the gap between African Americans and native Africans inspired the creation of the documentary "Blindfolded: How They Hid My Heritage from Me." Together, we worked to promote this powerful film, shedding light on misconceptions and fostering dialogue between communities. ๐ Born and raised in Miami, with Haitian roots and an African American background, Edwin's journey to uncover his heritage led him to Botswana and beyond. His commitment to empowering teens and dispelling stereotypes has ignited change in our communities. In collaboration with Edwin, and in the spirit of the Year of Return Africa, we celebrate the cultural exchange between Miami and Botswana. Through programs like BISCEP, we continue to create opportunities for transformative experiences and mutual understanding. ๐ Join us in honoring Edwin Sheppard's legacy and the vision of BISCEP. Follow Edwin's journey on Instagram @Edwinsheppard and learn more about BISCEP at www.biscep.org. Let's continue to celebrate Black history today and every day! ๐ฝ๏ธ **Watch Edwin's Journeys:** ๐ง๐ผ Edward in Botswana: [Video Link} https://www.facebook.com/YorAfrica/videos/403616296958672/ ๐บ๐ธ 1st Time in America: [Video Link] (https://www.facebook.com/edwin.sheppard.9/videos/10222060274685848) ๐ฐ **Read more about Edwin's Impact:** [Miami Herald Article](https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/education/article239174528.html) #yorafrica #gpaclife #BlackHistoryMonth #CulturalExchange #Empowerment #BISCEP #EdwinSheppard #YearOfReturnAfrica #Miami #Botswana #Community #Dialogue
Meet Winime, a student Nurse and Carer in the UK who has a farm here in Ghana.

Meet Susan Ofori-Atta: Ghana's first female physician ๐ฌ๐ญ Susan Ofori-Atta was born in Kyebi, Gold Coast (now Ghana), in 1917 to Nana Sir Ofori Atta I, the Okyenhene and Paramount Chief of the Akyem Abuakwa Traditional Area and his wife Nana Akosua Duodu. Susan started her basic education at St. Maryโs Convent Elmina (1921) and excelled so much that at the age of 12, she entered Achimota Secondary School in 1929; just two years after Achimota College had been opened in 1927. She was one of the pioneering students. Throughout her years at Achimota, she was among the top in her class and exhibited such excellence and brilliance in her academic work that she was one of the few women who made it to the final year and sat for the Cambridge School Certificate and passed. Susan also became the Girlsโ Head Prefect in her final year.
