Akua Naru: The Courage to Tell: The Courage To Live
Today we open the first King’s Circle session of 2026 with Akua Naru—uncompromising visionary, Pan-Africanist, and hip-hop legend. Akua is also a co-host of The King's Circle. See the Zoom link below. She’ll reflect on Longing to Tell, her blues opera that breaks silence around race, gender, and sexuality, and reclaims the inner lives and truths of Black women. Akua set Europe on fire with sold out shows in Germany and Austria. Akua is about to set the USA on fire too!! We’ll also speak on our documentary Becoming Light Again, to be filmed in Benin—a homecoming to sacred lands, Vodun, and ourselves. Becoming Light Again is also a meditation on mortality. Our film asks the question: how would you live differently in 2026 if this were your last sacred journey? What do you need to do in your life to Become Light Again? 🕞 3:30 PM EST today🎥 Recorded for those who cannot join live Looking forward to sharing this moment with you.
