Some common Adinkra symbols include Gye Nyame (except God), Sankofa (return and fetch it), and Bi-nka-bi (avoid conflicts).

As UX becomes increasingly Agile, a need arises to quickly create and iterate new interface elements. Many popular frameworks exist to document front-end design patterns. Most of them connect directly to the website's CSS, and help developers easily create new interface elements and templates.
But what happens when the design and UX team can't work in code? How can we create truly cross-functional design documentation that works both for developers and designers?
In this session, we will describe the process we have been working on to document our existing design patterns and create a working set of elements that allow both for rapid iteration of design prototypes and implementation of templates in code.
This session is for UXers who work with teams that include both front-end developers and visual/interaction designers, who need to create and iterate on interfaces in rapid, Agile environments.

Reading Ecocriticism in the play ‘A Dance of the forest’ by Wole Soyinka DivyaSheta
Xue and Bate suggest that the future is bleak for mankind. It is this bleak future that Wole Soyinka dramatises in A Dance of the Forests especially in the section where the three human characters are masked and in a state of possession they speak for the future in the voices of different spirits. As Eldred Jones (1973) intimates, the spirits together symbolise the total environment of Africa - all its resources and all its potentialities.
Even though the world is looking like total it is in lesser totality than the soul itself. In mathematics if anything is taken away from one it will have reduced volume or size etc.,but in God this theory is not applicable. Everything is coming out from Him but He is total and permanent. For example if a teacher is teaching something he is not loosing anything. His knowledge is total and the student's knowledge is also total.

Adinkra Symbols| A New Afrikan Aphorist Collection
1. Adinkra are visual symbols, originally created by the Akan of Ghana and the Gyaman of
Cote d'Ivoire in West Africa that represent concepts or aphorisms. Adinkra are used on
fabric, walls, in pottery, woodcarvings and logos. Fabric adinkra are often made by
woodcut sign writing as well as screen printing. They also can be used to communicate

“We are defining and representing Africology as the study of and participation in
our Afrikanity and humanities Afri-essence.”
It is a deep layered journey into Who We Were and Who We
Are down to the level of our collective ancestral unconscious ;
including our language, history, culture and educational ways,
empathizing evidence of our contributions to world history and
civilization and thus, our own present day probability,
possibility and potentiality. Of course any serious education of
Afrikan people is best began with a study of Kemet (Ancient
Egypt) and Classic Nile Valley Civilizations...and this is
precisely the course we chart. So africology at RBG Street
Scholars Think Tank, and within this classroom in particular, is
meant to be a cultural development and socialization process
anchor, transmitted in the context of what Dr. Clarke calls the
"eternal now" (overstanding that there is no separation
between the past, present and future-all of history is a current
event, and all current events are history).
