Build it and they will come / Julian Dykmans

“Freedom,” a free skatepark, music studio, and cultural hub in the heart of Accra, Ghana, was seized and held for ransom in an overnight coup led by a mysterious land-grabber. Sandy, Harmonie, and Sarah still can’t access their park. Over the past two years, they have faced rejection, intimidation, and sabotage, yet they have learned valuable lessons, stayed the course, and protected their community. Today, they continue to fight the unspoken resistance that emerges when women lead in spaces where they are not expected to.
