On Sankofa, you can store and retrieve cultural records like Proverbs, Folktales, Folklores, Histories, Migration, Food, Festivals, Dance etcetera
The Proverbs for example do not only give you a "proverb", it gives you the translation, transliteration and context usage with proverance and sources.
This can be reviewed, queried by community members which will be sent to a reviewer for confirmation.
The v.0.1 is live and ready to contributors ❤️
ANNOUNCEMENT: Sankofa v0.1 is live. 🌍
I have been quietly building an infrastructure for the collection, verification, preservation and responsible sharing of African cultural knowledge.
Today, we begin opening that work to the world.
Sankofa is being built to help ensure that African knowledge is not lost, disconnected from its origins, or forgotten.
This is not the final product.
This is the beginning.
