American icons look down from the walls as Hussein Musa cuts Rashid Karim's hair at "Mine Not be God" barber shop in Old Fadama. A haircut costs GHC 1.50 (about $1), and Hussein says he may have as many as 20 customers per day. Both men migrated from norther Ghana looking for work. Colloquially referred to as 'Sodom and Gomorrah, Old Fadama is located in Ghana's capital Accra and is home to some some 80,000 people.
