Upon the back and between the wings of Sankofa you have to travel deep to re-discover who you are after five hundred (500) years of the European's treacherous intent, mind, practice and steel determination fueled by the Papal Bull to recreate himself in others. Unable to see themselves for the 'white' in their eyes Africans throughout the Diaspora, Asians and Arabs in the multiples of the tens of thousands strive to be the 'white of their kind'. It is sad, but emancipation from this is within each soul.
The question is: who wants to be themselves? - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 8.23.16
