“There is no homelessness in Ghana because everybody is connected to a family,” states John Acquaye-Awah, author of the book “The American Doctor: The Boy From an African Village.” Today he discusses how the loss of African family culture and values creates generational poverty in African American families. Join us as we examine what we need to develop in order to create families and communities that take care of our elders, our orphaned children, and our single mothers. How do we  upliftthe young men who have been rejected by society because they lack appropriate social behavioral skills due to the absense of the guidance of a father in the home?
