Today’s visit to the Bɔss Abɛrɛwa Museum was not just a tour—it was a spiritual awakening.

Our lesson, “Sankofa, Spirituality & the Power of Black Feminine Identity,” came to life in a space filled with ancestral echoes and sacred symbolism. Surrounded by the strength of the feminine spirit, we walked through a curated narrative of Black womanhood—bold, resilient, mystical, and divine.

We explored the Sankofa principle, which teaches us to go back and reclaim what we’ve forgotten. And today, we remembered ourselves.

🌿 From the stories of African goddesses to the lived experience of Black women resisting colonization and patriarchy, students were overwhelmed with emotion. Some wept openly. Others stood in quiet awe. All were deeply moved.

We discussed:

What it means to honor the divine feminine in ourselves and our work.
How ancestral memory and spirit inform our healing and advocacy.
The role of Black women as carriers of wisdom, nurturers of resistance, and anchors of community.
🕊️ This space held our pain, but it also held our power.

Students reflected on how identity, legacy, and liberation are intertwined. As future social workers, this moment called us to center not just social justice—but spiritual justice.

We left forever changed, carrying the energy of the women before us and a renewed commitment to reclaim our stories, our names, and our sacred roles.
