Indigenous Cultures & Communities

WARM WELCOME TO YOU.


"What is the point of culture? Culture functions ultimately to ensure the preservation and continuity of a people. . .Culture does not make people. People make culture.“

- Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, "We Should All Be Feminists"


OUR INTENT

  • provide comprehensive knowledge and resources related to history and current events amongst indigenous communities.

  • provide resources to promote the sustainability of indigenous languages.

  • provide a place of community for the respective global indigenous communities.


“With colonization and slavery there was first the stealing of our knowledge, intelligence, strength and culture and then they hid it and then they repackaged it as their own. But you can never keep what was never yours. So our children were drawn to their birthright, what was stolen from their ancestors, and are now returning our birthright to the people and the land and bringing it back with the eye and the spirit that this was always ours. We are both bringing it home and at the same time proliferating it across the world but this time with authenticity and love. Akpe.”
