SW: What is the concept behind your book “When Dark Secrets get Darker”?

Mr. Pointer: The book is about a man named Benjamin Bishop an investigator of a very powerful small law firm in the city of Baltimore, MD.

Mr. Pointer:  I did a documentary entitled thirty day in Ghana, which is still editing now. I literally spent thirty days in Ghana.  I had the privilege of meeting a chief and the people of Ghana. I learned In 2011 Ghana was one of the fastest growing economic systems ranked higher than United States and China. If you want to invest your money or buy a reasonable home invest it in Ghana. Through out this documentary I wanted to focus on bridging the gap between Ghanaians and African American people. This relationship needs to be strengthened.

SW: Correspondent: Out of all the countries in the world why did you choose Ghana?

Mr. Pointer: Ghana is one of the most stable countries in West Africa. Ghana was the first country in West Africa to be independent from colonialism in 1957.
