Partnering with Ehalakasa\, the Ghanaian initiative aimed at a poetic exchange\, it draws from griot tradition and hip-hop to educate youth on their African heritage. Launched in 2016 with support from the Mills College Community Engagement Fellowship\, WO2WA made a profound impact. The 2018 publication\, “Our Spirits Carry Our Voices\,” led the poets to Ghana for a slam. Since then\, WO2WA conducted exchanges in Kenya and Nigeria\, featuring over 100 pan-African poets. \nhttps://westoaklandtowestafrica.com \nhttps://www.facebook.com/WO2WA/ \nKarla Brundage\nKarla Brundage is a Bay Area-based poet\, activist\, and educator with a passion for social justice.
