Sankofa Shadow Work: Diaries of a Diasporic Diviner by Sara Makeba Daise

PRE-ORDER: WILL SHIP OCTOBER 24TH

Sankofa Shadow Work: Diaries of a Diasporic Diviner is a profound literary cosmogram following the intimate journey of a Black queer Southern Diviner, Griot, and Gatekeeper. Through a dynamic blend of memoir, public history, conjure, and fabulation, this book offers a powerful exploration of life, death, and rebirth cycles, centered around the quest to love and heal both ancestors and oneself in a world hostile to Black life .

The manuscript explores the realities of chronic fear and trauma, both individual and collective, and prioritizes accessible, multidimensional responses and healing technologies. Grounded in Womanism, Black Feminism, Afrofuturism, Afrogenics, and Africana Spirituality, it challenges colonial interpretations of The South and its native Africana and Indigenous communities.

Ultimately, Sankofa Shadow Work is a celebration of one Black Heroine's Journey, inviting readers to confront and embrace their shadows, center pleasure, and build safe, nurturing communities as the empire consumes itself.
