At this pivotal moment in the conversation around anti-Black racism in North America and beyond, Jean Augustine is reminded of the Sankofa a bird associated with a west African proverb used to express the importance of reaching back for knowledge gained from the past.
“Whenever you see the Sankofa it’s with its head looking back, then forward to position,” said Augustine. “I use that analogy because I think in order for us to go forward into the future, like the Sankofa, we have to know the past, take information from the past and bring it to the present. That is what I’m hoping Black History Month would be, could be or should be.”
