Baba Obadele Williams will help us re-live the first Abakosem Sunsum as we prepared the ancestral bust for delivery to its final resting place- Ghana, West Afrika. You Remember the first Abakosem Sunsum - the spirit, the energy, the children, passing on the legacy, the drums, dancing, ancestral veneration, unveiling of the bust!

Mama Marimba delivered the bust. In a sacred ceremony, She, Baba Baffour, and others placed it on his shrine! Obadele, takes us back there to bring us forward, to help us prepare for the 4th Annual Abokosem Sunsum in May 5th in Atlanta, GA!

Here, you don’t have to wait until the public school system mandates a Black History course. Here, you don’t have to lament that you missed that PBS special during “Black History Month.” Here, you don’t have to wonder, “where do I start?” AYA Educational Institute is YOUR school system. The ancestors and the unborn have mandated it.
