Jourdan Brunson and Tameshia Rudd-Ridge know firsthand just how difficult it can be to discover Black family history, but have also experienced the immense joy of reconnecting with long-lost relatives.
We bonded over our shared research frustrations and ”brick walls,” and later learned through DNA that we’re cousins. This pushed us toward building digital tools that transform the family history discovery experience for Afro-descended people.
kinkofa is making it easier than ever for Black folx to uncover, document, and preserve our unique origin stories. We are the only digital family history platform intentionally-designed to reconnect to Black families.
Through partnerships with public and private organizations, we amplify stories that honor and enhance the public’s understanding of African Americans contributions to history.
We're deeply inspired by the ancient Adinkra proverb 'sankofa' of the Akan peoples who reside in present-day Ghana and Ivory Coast. 'Sankofa' encourages us to learn from our history and heritage in order to move forward.
We can't wait to join your family history journey. You'll be one of the first to know when kinkofa's platform is live! Check out our oral history recording tool, Rememory .
