Cultural and Historical Development
Greetings!
I've had the chance to meet with wonderful people at this conference. Thank you for the opportunity. Those that I haven't met with, I am interested in historical and cultural development. I am collaborating with The Sankofa Saturday School porgram which is held in Queens, New York at The African Poetry Theater for children ages 5-17.
I hope to start an Afro-centric library at the school. At the Sankofa Saturday School, we also hope to expand the current curriculum. Also, I am in the midst of planning several cultural events that involve the children and the community. This is the first program at the Queens site, there is one is Brooklyn, New York that has been a three year success. We hope for the same in Queens.
