Sankofa Journey
Thursday, October 21, October 21-24
Sankofa is a West African word meaning “looking backward to move forward.” The Sankofa journey, an intentional, cross-racial prayer journey, seeks to assist disciples of Christ on their move towards a righteous response to the social ills related to racism. This interactive experience explores historic sites of importance in the Civil Rights movement, sites of oppression and inequality for people of color, while seeking to move participants toward healing the wounds and racial divide caused by hundreds of years of racial injustice in the USA.
A Sankofa journey increases one’s awareness, understanding and sensitivity for past struggles, victories and continuing racist oppression existing in our country, how far we have come, and how far we have yet to go.
On this 72-hour bus journey, participants will travel to critical sites of past and present racial injustice, such as Birmingham, AL, Memphis, TN, Albany, GA and Atlanta, GA. They will meet and hear from persons directly involved in ministries of justice in southern Georgia, visit places like the 16th Street Baptist Church, civil rights institutions, the Martin Luther King Center, and more.
Learn more about the Sankofa Journey at our denomination website.
Upcoming Sankofa Journey: October 21-24, 2010
