Breaking the Cycle
from Restoring Legacies · host April Yankey
🎙️ Join April Yankey as she launches "Restoring Legacies". Feeling stuck in repetitive work, April is turning her attention to something that matters more. She wants to revive Africa’s fading maintenance culture and highlight the sustainability of Indigenous African architecture. With her background in architecture and experience in Ghana’s real estate industry, she is using her podcast to push back against the idea that ‘if you want to hide information from an African, put it in books’. The knowledge is there. It has just been overlooked, undervalued, or ignored. Through stories, lived experiences, and forgotten practices, April is helping people reconnect with the wisdom that once shaped Africa’s built environment. This is a call to action to restore not just buildings but then, also cause a shift in our mindsets.Follow us on TIKTOK @restoringlegacies_pod and IG @restoringlegacies_podIntro Music: Colonization by NSGOutro Music: Tswa Omanye Aba by the Legendary Naa Amanua of Wulomei Fame and the EKN Big BoyzShow Art Photographed by April Yankey, Fort Vernon -Prampram.
