The Meaning of Sankofa
Sankofa, an Akan word meaning “go back and get it,” represents the importance of learning from the past to build a better future.
The symbol reminds us that looking back is not a step backward, but an opportunity to reclaim knowledge, honor our roots, and move forward with greater wisdom and purpose.
