Sankofa Tenet

The Sankofa Tenet helps us to better understand the identity of self and others through culture. Engage in Sankofa identity strategies that help us to return in time to bring to the present useful past cultural values. Who are we culturally and what role does culture play in our daily lives?

Topics:

  • Define culture and how group membership intersects with racial and cultural identity.

  • Identify alternative ways to conceptualize and reflect on how we see ourselves and others through a cultural lens.

  • Implement Sankofa strategies to learn about past social group identity, membership and cultural ways of being.
