Let's talk about how I like to end the year, with plenty of creative reflection that helps fuel my endeavors into the new year.
This episode is based on the Adinkra symbols of the Ashanti people (modern day Ghana, Togo, and Côte d'Ivoire) called "Sankofa" meaning, go back and get it. There are two different symbols that share this name, with slightly different meanings. I'll be referring to the bird turned back on itself meaning, learning from the past.

( Research on Adinkra symbols came from a book by Ghanian writer Seyram Agbleze called "Journey of West African Textile Traditions" )
