Sankofa Sounds: Black Sacred Music Traditions Across Time
In the West African tradition, the Adinkra symbol of 鈥淪ankofa鈥 depicts a bird with its head turned backwards while its feet face forward carrying a precious egg in its mouth. It is primarily understood as 鈥渓ooking back to move forward.鈥 Sankofa Project explores the rich tapestry of vocal music created and interpreted by people of African descent in the US and across the diaspora while drawing correlation to works from the European/Western canon. Experience Black music and culture through the annals of history from the hush harbor to the institutional Black church and historically Black colleges to social justice movements.
