LIMITED EDITION KENTE STOLE. AVAILABLE IN LIMITED QUANTITIES.

"You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, and how you can still come out of it. You must persevere, for it is in the face of adversity that we discover our true strength." - Maya Angelou

This stole features the "perseverance" symbol AKA "wawa aba". The literal translation of "wawa aba" is "the wawa tree's seed". The wawa tree's seed is known for being extremely hard. This wawa aba symbolizes toughness and your ability to persevere through difficulty to get to where you are now.

    Authentic Kente Cloth is a handwoven work of art made in Ghana, West Africa. Kente Cloth was traditionally only worn by Kings and Queens in Ghana and is created by master craftsmen. Kente Cloth provides income to generations of master craftsmen and supports black businesses. 

    Since gaining popularity, our authentic kente stoles have been increasingly counterfeited. These imitation stoles, machine-made in China, are not handwoven in Africa and misrepresent true kente cloth. Moreover, they appropriate the work of African artists and mislead African American graduates into believing they are wearing authentic kente cloth. Don't compromise on your special day. Ensure you're getting authentic Kente Cloth, made in the tradition of African kings and queens and honoring the heritage of African artists, by buying directly from us.

          LOVED IT!!!

          I was repeatedly asked where I got my stole, to which I GLADLY said “Sankofa Edition”! It’s better than I thought it would be! And it looked better than the ones my school was selling for the same price. The colors are very vibrant; high quality fabric-just a great buy!

          Thank you so much for taking the time to share your positive experience with us! We're delighted to hear that you are satisfied with the stole you purchased from Sankofa Edition. Your kind words about the vibrant colors and high-quality fabric are greatly appreciated. Congratulations on your graduation!
