Watch An African City - Trailer and all Season 1 episodes

Below you will find - my thoughts -their instagram pages to stalk - trailer & all episodes 1-10 EPIC

We know I love tv & movies but last year I fell in love with webisodes! Amazing tv shows that are 5-20mins mins long, free and of great quality online, and a lot are on youtube.

TRAILER:

One of the shows I really enjoyed is called an African City. It's like Sexy & the City meets Nigeria, but instead it's placed in Ghana . Growing up, my only bubble was Nigeria, it was all i knew (ok and trips abroad to London & LA). As for the rest of the world I got it on TV, novels & comics. I remember watching discovery channel as a kid, and seeing naked black people, wondering where in Africa that was, and how archaic it seemed. I remember watching Simon Cowell on Pop idol as a kid. Life was Flinstones, etc and normal.
Then I moved to America at 16, and realized I wasn't just Nigerian anymore, or Igbo which is how i had identified myself. I was now black, and represented not just my tribe, or my country, but every African city and country became the same, and various continents with black people all became the same. Can you believe lots of people wondered if i lived in a house? or if i were a princess cause i had clothes, like common dude i got here on a plane!!! Think about it... we have an airport, cars, electricity (sometimes)... i knew Simon before you had American Idol!!! *sigh* they lumped me with those people on the same discovery channel. You get a different consciousness.

what's the point of saying all this? I don't really blame them, because I grew up thinking america was just like "Saved by the Bell," a beautiful melting pot, where all races got along ( I was kinda wrong). So now watching this... I kept going "OMG Ghana is just like Nigeria!!," "we're twinnies!!" we might as well be neighbors. It's a different perspective but remember like Saved by the Bell & the Discovery Channel this doesn't represent everyone in Africa.
Plus i think they jumped into bed way to quick with people!!!!! This isn't normal right? or am I really a square, and it's like that even in Nigeria, Ghana, or wherever in Africa.
I love that my blog shows you cool parts of Nigeria ( or wherever I am, and i think this mini-series is Amazing does that too!!!). They understand the whole moving back to the country!! Being an adult. It's done well... I enjoyed it... and it was free :)

amazing right!!! LOVED IT. different topics me and my friends discuss. but it slightly irked me the way they pronouced Ngozi wrongly. the funniest part is I didn't notice Segun was a Nigerian name at ALL!! for a long time cause it was pronounced wrongly. So great I just watched it wishing i were part of the production. LOVE IT SO MUCH!! the clothes, cinematography, the free... lol. ok gotta go work... or i'll be late.
