Sankofa. In the Twi language of Ghana a bird with feet forward, beak turned back, holding a precious egg, representing 'you have to look back in order to move forward'. I bought this beauty the year I moved to California, 22 yrs ago. Had no knowledge of it's symbolism at the time, just knew that it spoke to me. #blackodyssey #calshakes https://www.instagram.com/p/BogFmmznLaH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1a4jyhz7aun4e
