Description
Sankofa is an Akan word that means to "retrieve" and is immortalised in the Sacred Adinkra symbol system. It represents a mythical bird with its feet facing forward, carrying a precious egg.
In this story, young Sankofa asks his family members why they look back as he journeys to discover his own reasons for moving forward.
As he searches for answers, Sankofa learns that looking backward can be important and good. But what does it mean to him, and how will he find his way?
