It is to encourage all Africans to embrace their cultural heritage with pride and dignity. Adinkra symbols are visual symbols with historical and philosophical significance. The symbols originally were printed on cloths worn by royals to paramount ceremonies. Adinkra symbols, originated from the Gyaman people of Ghana and La Côte D’Ivoire.
