About this listen

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.
