You cannot have accurate foresight without hindsight. ~Therese Taylor-Stinson (c) 2014 Sankofa can mean either the word in the Akan language of Ghana that translates in English to reach back and get it (san - to return; ko - to go; fa - to look, to seek and take) or the Asante Adinkra symbols of a bird with its head turned backwards taking an egg off its back, or of a stylised heart shape. It is often associated with the proverb, “Se wo were fi na wosankofa a yenkyi, which translates It is not wrong to go back for that which you have forgotten.[1] en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sankofa
