  • Sovereignty

  • Wisdom

  • Identity

  • Ritual

  • Awaken

Our sovereignty is sacred. Born of the blood of our ancestry. A history never to be forgotten. Full of wisdom for the descendants of people begotten by Kings and Queens. It is our identity! Through ritual and the rites of passage, we awaken to our Truth.

WEAVING YOUR STORY

Through word and image

  • Be the author of your own story.

  • Continue the tradition of oral history passed down through the ages.

  • Honor your Ancestors in word and image.

  • Record your history so that it cannot be erased.

We live in a time where there is an attempt to erase our history. Our books are being banned. Our history is no longer being taught in schools. Our great accomplishments are hidden or claimed by others.

Let your voice be heard!

By continuing the traditions of our Ancestors - storytelling and documentation through image - we combat this attempt at erasure. We leave behind oral and physical artifacts of our very existence. Pictures of who we are. Trinkets and treasures that represent the lives lived. Memorabilia from us and of us.

Learn the history of these traditions and be empowered to continue them!
