Sankofa Communications

Through presentations and speaking engagements, Sankofa Communications shares facts and information on the Gullah community and by utilizing various sources and assets, Sankofa Communications is considered a cultural umbrella which inspires and informs others about this richly significant culture and community. As a cultural influencer and preservationist, I provide a level of expertise and credibility as a speaker. Through my body of work, I share information in a way that is factual and more creatively delivered. By offering online and social media access in this niche area, my services are unique, and I am unaware of anyone delivering information in this format or on the scale and reach that I have established. Having written and documented over 300 articles on Gullah history, culture, and traditions, as well as, individuals and families, I have amassed a following and reputation as a cultural authority. Over the past six years, I have established myself as a subject matter expert and have shared my work and knowledge through teaching two popular local OLLI classes, From Slavery to the Lowcountry Gullah and The First Families of Hilton Head. Both courses have had enrollments of up to 150 people, which is among OLLI’s largest attendance numbers. In addition to writing articles and snippets on the culture, I write, produce, voice, and direct documentaries and short form videos that highlight the cultural in a visual format. In addition to creating several video shorts, I produced three popular documentaries: Freedom Day | The Historic Families of Mitchelville, Juneteenth | The Birth of Freedom and Harriett Tubman | From the Railroad to A Spy. My experience and expertise, makes me uniquely qualified to fill a void for information and knowledge about the culture.
