Henneh Kwaku Kyereh is an interdisciplinary poet-scholar born in Gonasua and raised in Drobo in the Bono Region of Ghana. As a critical and interpretive scholar grounded in Black feminist thought and decolonial research methods, his current research employs art-based approaches and narrative repair to engage with medical mistrust and vaccine inquisitiveness in Black populations, with broader interests in race, culture, and health communication. He is the winner of Poetry Magazine's J. Howard and Barbara M.J. Wood Prize and has received fellowships from the Library of Africa and the African Diaspora (LOATAD), Chapman University, and the Carolyn Moore Writing Residency. 

He's the author of Revolution of the Scavengers (African Poetry Book Fund/Akashic Books, 2020) and the founder/host of the Church of Poetry. He has taught courses including Public Speaking in a Diverse Society, Intercultural Communication, and Introduction to Creative Writing, and will teach Introduction to Health Communication in Spring 2026. He holds a Bachelor of Public Health in Disease Control (University of Health and Allied Sciences, Ghana), an MA in Health Education (University of Cape Coast, Ghana), an MFA in Creative Writing (Chapman University), and is pursuing a PhD with an emphasis in Health and Culture (Chapman University).
