SELECT MERCHANDISE & LEARNING SUPPORT MATERIAL
Culture is central to Afrikan life and has been so since time immemorial. Great nations have been established from what can be described as nothing less than the 'highest culture'. However, in recent times, Afrikan history has had major interruptions such as mass displacement, enslavement and colonisation which sought to destroy cultural facets. This has led many to question whether Afrikan people around the world have a culture or indeed a culture to celebrate.
