Part-travelogue, part-manifesto and part-workbook, SEEKING SEXUAL FREEDOM is a powerful and bold call to sexual liberation.
While working on her first 'groundbreaking' (Ms. Magazine) book, The Sex Lives of African Women, acclaimed African feminist and activist Nana Darkoa Sekyiamah had access to the wildest dreams and spiciest realities of women from around the world. But so often, she noticed that something was holding these women back from achieving full liberation and unfettered joy. So, she set out to apply sankofa-which means learning from the past to inform the future-to sex and pleasure, reclaiming African traditions in a quest to achieve sexual freedom.
Organised in three parts, Sekyiamah first takes readers across the African continent, from Senegal to Tanzania and beyond, where she meets and trains with gurus, 'witches', and aunties whose job it is to guide girls through puberty rites and later through 'marital training.' She discusses practices like beading and pulling, while highlighting the spiritual and gender-fluid nature of African traditional religions. The second part of the book asks us how we've lost our way, looking at the incursion of colonialism and western patriarchal norms into sexuality which has led to our warped ideals of beauty and shame, internalized racism, as well as state and interpersonal violence that stand in the way of sexual liberation. Finally, Sekyiamah shows that we can overcome these hurdles by returning to a more joyful and free sexual practice, using practical advice and prompts to chart our own journey.

Developing nations in Africa need access to advanced technology,
innovation, and entrepreneurial skills for sustainable development
as they address challenges that face the world at large in the 21st
century. Since Ghana's development indices (high or low) remain
deeply rooted in the measure of education provided to its citizens,
the nation must seriously and continuously invest in university
education and technological and entrepreneurial skills to enhance
sustainable development. The strategy for sustainable development
in Ghana appears to be well planned for global and regional
agendas, with higher education serving as a panacea. Education 2030

malnutrition, and disease. This book also examines the interplay
between entrepreneurial education and sustainable economic
development in developing countries. Covering topics such as
engineering technologies, entrepreneurship, and communication
technologies, this book is ideal for researchers, educators,

Clunking Heads on Campus: Tales of a Resident Advisor is a fun and
thought- provoking account of the thought processes of an
international student from a non- liberal background who becomes RA
to thirty-six freshmen in a very liberal college setting. She
shares snippets of her experiences as an RA and the not-so-mundane
shocks of coed living. Her story is for internationals worldwide
who are curious about life on US campuses, and for local Americans
who are about to embark on their journeys to college. She shares
tips, tricks, and ideas of being a freshman dorm RA, which can be
applied in a variety of settings. Most importantly, she sheds light
on the ways in which her faith allowed her to flourish in spite of
mainstream hindrances. After growing up all over the world, Nana B.
Brun came to the United States at eighteen to study mathematics and
physics. She became an RA during her senior year in college, when
she was twenty-one years old.
