Problem Statement
The Contemporary African Adult Problem:
Most of us African adults who were born in urban centers or live in the diaspora are often not as culturally proficient as we desire to be.
Most of us cannot speak our indigenous mother tongue and do not know enough about where we come from.
This knowledge gap creates an uncomfortable feeling of intimidation or overwhelm when the topics pertaining to our roots and cultural background come up.
If this describes your situation, the Modern Ancestors exists to enable you with resources that make you knowledgeable, competent and well grounded in your cultural identity without any form of intimidation, fear or overwhelm. We also curate community experiences that provide a shame-free environment which fosters the mindful and intentional adoption of the elements of our African Cultural Identity in respectful terms and with mindful consideration of our personal values.
A Goldmine With A Valuation Problem
Should we ignore our Cultural Identity?
What is the real value of our African Cultural Identity in 2025?
What socio-economic advantages (or opportunities) are available to us when we develop our African Cultural Identity?
Why is it so undervalued and at the brink of extinction today?
Should we learn from the older generation? If yes, what should we learn from them and why should it matter?
Should we adopt ALL aspects of our cultural identity without questioning them or aligning with our personal values?
What kind of parents, grandparents etc will we make?
What will our generation’s legacy be and what elements of our African Cultural Identity will we pass down to the next generation?
Can Learning about and adopting our African Cultural Identity be both a fun and an enlightening experience?
