Welcome to

The Akua Cultural Institute

where…

“Knowledge Always Desires Increase”

“To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain a child. For what is the worth of human life unless it is woven into the life of our Ancestors by the record of history” …Marcus Tillis Cicero.

The Akua (Ah-koo-wa) is your Online Specialty Books-Institute that offers the opportunity to locate, (with minimum purchasing power), Pan-Afrikan literature published from years past to the present and hopefully the unpredictable future. The Akua excels in titles dealing with the origin of western religions and civilizations from a factual and documented Afrikan perspective as well as difficult to find titles due to the inadequate and cryptic printing, publishing, and distribution of Black Studies from the American past.

Waiting for American Public-School systems to direct and fulfill cultural learning habits of American children was a ‘no brainer’ from the start…and has been one of the most devastating holdbacks to Afrikan diasporic cultures.

Look for monthly specials to supply your learning needs: So, let’s return to the source.
