"It felt like home when I was in Lagos, it felt like home when I was in Ghana. This is my birthright, to go into my roots." They say that home is where the heart is. In other words, it's a place you feel connected to; where you feel safe, seen and heard. History has long misrepresented and excluded African women from mainstream media, so we set off to build our own haven, our own home – a space that we can call ours, allowing us to explore and demonstrate who we really are. AMAKA is that haven. For this short film, AMAKA sat down with Kenya's Victoria Kimani and South Africa's Yoliswa Mqoco to discover what home means to them as Pan-African women.
