This is a typical group of Ghanaian women you would see on the street in Akropong.  As usual, someone is carrying something on her head.  Another is carrying her baby tied to her back.  Women carry their babies this way all day as they go about their work until children are able to walk and often longer.  The mix of traditional and Western dress is also common.  In part, younger women who see more media want to wear Western clothes.  But also, boatloads of Western clothes arrive from US donations that are far less expensive than the local traditional fabrics.
