Skip to content A fearless podcast exploring the global Black experience—where heritage, identity, leadership, and unfiltered truth come together.
Sankofa Sessions with Kofi & Kofi is a fresh, fearless podcast that digs into the global Black experience with honesty, cultural depth, and forward-thinking conversations. It’s a space where heritage, identity, and leadership intersect—guided by two hosts who bring both lived experience and unfiltered truth to the table.

Expect real dialogue without fluff. These are conversations for people who want depth, connection, and truth beyond surface-level talk.

In this episode of Sankofa Sessions, the team takes an unfiltered look at Pan-Africanism—its history, its meaning, and its rebirth in the modern age. From the early visionaries like Marcus Garvey and Kwame Nkrumah to the wave of reconnection sparked by Ghana’s Year of Return in 2019, the conversation explores how the call for unity across the African diaspora has evolved into something deeper.The discussion goes beyond symbolism to examine what true Pan-African solidarity looks like in practice—economically, culturally, and spiritually. How do we move from “visiting the homeland” to building with the homeland? What does it mean for the diaspora to not just return, but to reinvest, reimagine, and rebuild? And what are the pushbacks.Grounded in the Sankofa principle—learning from the past to shape the future—this episode challenges listeners to see Pan-Africanism not as nostalgia, but as a living, breathing mission for global Black progress.
In this episode of Sankofa Sessions, Kofi Annan and Kofi Adih dive headfirst into one of the most charged conversations in Black America today — the rise of the Foundational Black American (FBA) movement.What started as a call to honor the lineage and legacy of those whose ancestors built this country has now become a lightning rod for debate. Is it a necessary assertion of identity and justice — or is it creating new divisions within the diaspora?The Kofis unpack it all: the history behind the movement, the politics shaping it, and the tension between cultural pride and separation. With honesty, humor, and perspective rooted in both sides of the Atlantic, they explore what “foundation” really means in a global Black context — and how we can move forward without losing sight of who we are.

and the global Black experience. Each episode dives deep into stories that inform, inspire,
