Give Your Child A Chance by Sankofa Student Consultants


Give your children a chance to work towards complete pan-African liberation (i.e. for the liberation of the descendants of Africans all around the world; to include black Americans, black Latinos, black Europeans, black Asians, black islanders, and Africans on the motherland) for the sake of their future.  

Sometimes it takes one to look back at our own education and correlate it with the goals we have today.  Many of us grew up with a white Jesus, reading classical European literature, and admiring the European beauty images on TV and in magazines.  What this education did to us was motivate us to perm our hair, to seek further integration with European Americans, to degrade those with darker skin tones, to go to college for the purpose of getting good jobs rather than becoming entrepreneurs, and to abandon our neighborhoods as soon as we could afford to move next door to European Americans.  

By providing our children with an Afro-centric perennial education, we give them an opportunity to see beautiful images of African people, to see that beauty in themselves and each other, to read literature by pan-Africans which would encourage them to buy up their blocks, to build their own neighborhoods – with schools funded by their property taxes which would educate their children, to start their own businesses, to donate to our organizations, and to fight for our rights.  

If we continue to educate our children in the same manner we were educated, the trajectory path we our on leads towards complete self-hate, annihilation by self-neglect, and continued communal poverty.


I invite you to begin the conversation on how we can give our children a chance to fight for liberation in this communal public discussion here on my blog and/or at www.SankofaStudent.com; where our only goal is the unification of our nation through education.  And remember, country borders are drawn in blood; where ever there are people willing to spill their blood for liberation, new borders are drawn.
