Inspired by acclaimed chef Eric Adjepong’s own childhood, Sankofa
is the powerful story of a young boy’s culinary journey 400 years
into the past to reconnect with his African roots and find his own
place in America. What if home was a place you’ve never been? For
Kofi, a first-generation Ghanaian American boy, home is a country
called Ghana. But it’s a place he’s never been. When tasked to
bring a dish that best represents his family’s culture to
school for a potluck lunch, Kofi is torn. With the help of his
Nanabarima (grandfather), Kofi learns the hardship and resilience
his family has endured—and how food has always been an integral
part their story and culture. Sankofa is a reminder that food can
transport you to a place called home—even if you’ve never been.
