“I Am Because We Are”: Cultivating Ancestral Connections

Ancestor reverence is the root of Black spirituality. It is deeply embedded in our communal heritage across the African Diaspora, influencing every part of who we are, yet it often goes unacknowledged today. This class explores the historical and cultural significance of honoring our Ancestors. Participants will learn how to create Ancestor altars and techniques to recognize and interpret Ancestral messages. By cultivating self-love and honoring oneself, students will deepen their connection with their Ancestors, fostering personal growth, cultural enrichment, and spiritual connection.
