As we enter Thanksgiving week, I’m thrilled to share that I am now a proud citizen of Ghana! I am both an American and Ghanaian citizen. The first in my family to gain dual citizenship, but certainly not the last.
What does this mean? I am Ghanaian. I share the same rights as Ghanaian citizens and can travel freely between the U.S. and Ghana without a visa. More importantly, it deepens my responsibility to my people—to contribute, support, give, love, and act.
I’m not just adding my name to a citizenship list—I’m becoming part of Ghana’s story.
Thank you, Lord, for expanding my territory!
Lastly, I want to thank my village for jumping on a plane at the last minute to share in this life moment with me . I love you deep. The ceremony with President Nana Akufo-Addo was truly unforgettable. #ghana #ghcitizen #2passports #Ghanaian #American #proud #ghcitizenship #African #dualcitizenship
My life is good—not because I’m good, but because God is good. And for that, I’m grateful. Cape-town/JoBurg 2025 +2024 photo dump.

I’m still riding the high from last weekend. My heart is overflowing with the love and support that was shown to me Friday night.
The award is a representation of the work that I will continue to do to honor the amazing champions who have gone before me and ensure that we all have the opportunity to become what God has created us to be.
I stand on the shoulders of the “fearless, bold, and with unshakable faith in God” of great men and women of the past and present. I am beyond moved by the unwavering support of Senator Warnock and the heartening and inspiring words of Mayor Kasim Reed.
I will honor each of you by continuing to serve to the best of my ability. I hold dear our collective commitment to shaping a brighter political future. Thank you to my village for showing up like you always do .
Thank you @ydatl , my heart is full.
BEY X CBC = one heck of a week/weekend! Nothing like seeing an artist in their hometown. #beyonce #beyoncerenaissance The 52nd Annual Legislative Conference (CBC) was amazing. Senator @raphaelwarnock was an awesome co-chair. Over 11 million dollars raised to advance the global black community by developing leaders, informing policy, and educating the public. Thank you to the many artist that came out to help advance the mission of CBC: @diddy@boyziimen@kevinlileskwl@newedition@llcoolj@quavohuncho@meagangood and so many more! Also thank you to the CBC staff for your hardwork. @cbcfinc #cbc2023 #alc2023
Family + Reunion= Family Reunion ❤️ . I’ve been coming to the Vineyard for over a decade to spend the end of my summer vacations. I can truly say this year was amazing. Reconnecting with people I haven’t seen in years and making memories with people I see all the time really made this summer special. God is truly amazing.#marthasvineyardlife #marthasvineyard #summer #love #family #cousins #friends #friendsforever #summer2023
