Symposium on Afrofuturism and Diasporic Research
Wednesday February 12, 2025 1:30pm - 1:50pm EST
This study examines the intersection of Sankofa, Afrofuturism, and womanism through storytelling within the African diaspora. Rooted in the Akan principle of Sankofa, which emphasizes learning from the past to navigate the present and future, storytelling is explored as a tool for preserving cultural memory and imagining new possibilities. Integrating Afrofuturism and womanism, the study highlights how Black women use narratives to resist oppression and empower their communities. By analyzing personal and communal stories, this research underscores storytelling’s role in identity, resilience, and transformation, offering insights into its cultural and political significance for shaping inclusive futures.
