Joshua Apeku Personal Report
I am Joshua Apeku, born and raised in Ghana, West Africa. This is my second year at Tarrant County College, pursuing Associate of Arts. I will be transferring to UTA, sometime next year. Reallocating to the US has been the most important event in my life, I have learned a lot of things. The culture is totally different compared to the other side of the world. An example is, people in Ghana will see it as an insult to receive or take something with the left hand, whereas here it is normal. I have family here so this change not really affect me. I am hoping to learn more about the history of this country in this class.

If you would like Joshua I can go ask the doctor who is on his case to talk with you and your parents about your care.

    What Organizations, Ideologies, and Leaders Did Africans Create and Engage in the 20th Century to Promote and Advance Their Liberation?

    In my essay I chose to use multiple references from both the syllabus and my class notes. As the ground platform for not only what we will be covering in class over the whole semester but also the basis of what African studies is, the syllabus also provides vital background information on concepts that I will need to understand to successfully finish the Introduction to Afro-American Studies course. As the primary text of the course it is imperative to thoroughly comprehend every part of the syllabus from the ground rules to intellectual work, to the framework questions which we will be discussing and answering as the class continues. The syllabus provided to my class has been inexplicably helpful in assisting in the complete understand of the concepts that although basic to the course are difficult and new to an incoming and ill-informed student body.…

    African-American culture is rooted in Africa. It is a blend of chiefly sub-Saharan African and Sahel an cultures. Although slavery greatly restricted the ability of Americans of African descent to practice their cultural traditions, many practices, values, and beliefs survived and over time have modified or blended with white culture. There are some facets of African-American culture that were accentuated by the slavery period. The result is a unique and dynamic culture that has had and continues to have a profound impact on mainstream American culture, as well as the culture of the broader world.…

    Blood Diamonds: Course Analysis

    At the beginning of this course, I hoped to learn about cultures that I previously knew little about. I think that this class did help me achieve this goal. I learned about issues, like the Arab Spring, that I had little knowledge of previously. One issue that I knew especially little about was the Blood Diamonds. While in the past I had heard the term "blood diamonds" mentioned, nobody had ever thoroughly explained what those were and how they came to be. I never knew that slaves mined the gems, and that the money acquired from selling the diamonds was used to fund a war. The issue helped me see how influential the shopping habits of developed countries can be on other nations across the world. If there is an injustice taking place, every…
