Brother Sankofa (Youth Ministry Organizer)
          
 Sankofa was born in Baton Rouge Louisiana, but was raised on the outskirts of Tubman City
 (Baltimore), where he still resides. He passionately believes
 that his spiritual name is a reflection of his life's journey as
he continues to evolve. The name "Sankofa" is an ancient
West Afrikan term which means, "Go Back And Re-learn
One's History to Prepare for the Future". In the summer of
2008, Sankofa's Youth Educational Program was birthed
when brother Sankofa discovered his true God-given purpose.
The concept of organizing a youth educational organization
to elevate the young generations' cultural awareness seemed
like a necessary solution for community empowerment.
Brother Sankofa's first recorded lecture was titled "Sacrifice
and Commitment" which took place in St. Louis, Missouri at
the Afrikan Village Convocation in the summer of 2008. Since
then Brother Sankofa has been diligently striving to perfect
his craft as a motivational speaker and teacher.  As an organizer, leader, activist, mentor and
liberator, Sankofa deals primarily with topics as they effect black people.  These topics include
hip-hop music, economics, relationships, black history, health nutrition and many others.
Sankofa's methodology for carrying out his devine mission is via lectures, workshops, 
seminars and community programs.
