We were awakened by Sister Kelli. It wasn’t a good morning because the shower wasn’t working and I had to be late for breakfast. After breakfast the shower was working but only a little bit of water was coming out. We all went to visit the Yallahs High School so we could work with the scholars and get a tour of the school. After we got there all the students of Yallahs were outside about to do what Sankofa call morning circle. This morning I realized that the Yallahs School and Sankofa are similar in a lot of ways. We met up with the students that were working with us to do the documentary and then we went to a classroom and played a game to introduce ourselves to each other. Afterwards, we took our tour of Yallahs High School and I noticed that Yallahs had a lot of different classes than Sankofa, such as wood shop and welding classes.
This is a blog to help to document the 12-day journey that the Jamaica Ambassadors of Sankofa Freedom Academy took from 13 January - 24 January 2012.
