Assignment task:
From Ani's, "To Be Afrikan" reading....Given all that we have discussed in the past five weeks, should we return to an African way of thinking as a way to understand Africana women? Collins' suggests this point in regards to sexuality. What does it mean for us to be Afrikan, according to Marimba Ani? What is her argument and what is her rationale for making this point(s)? What is Sankofa and what does this term have to do with being Afrikan; who is she talking to? Finally, do you agree or disagree with her argument as we think about the experiences of Africana women in America? Why or why not?
