Africana Studies Week 55th Anniversary: Cementing our Legacy

Join us for the 55th Anniversary: Cementing Our Legacy, a powerful celebration of fifty-five years of Sankofa—a journey rooted in the remembrance of our ancestral heritage and historical resilience. “Cementing Our Legacy” honors the struggles and victories that have defined our path, highlighting how our rich past continues to shape and inspire the future of Africana Studies. As we reflect on the monumental contributions of those who paved the way, we also look forward—preserving our cultural heritage while igniting new possibilities for growth and innovation. Through an interdisciplinary approach, our department empowers students to not only explore their historical and cultural foundations but also to soar towards future achievements, carrying the legacy forward.
