Embodying Sankofa | Kamal Bell | TEDxNCState

Kamal Bell takes us into a deep dive into his small community farm "Sankofa". A farm dedicated to his students to increase financial literacy and reward hard work. Kamal relates his experience of the farm to the beautiful African word "Sankofa". As the owner of Sankofa Farms, a 12-acre farm launched through a USDA Farm Service Agency’s Direct Farm Ownership loan, Kamal works to improve food policy throughout the triangle. This agriculture-based program aims to improve the perception of both STEM and agriculturally related professions through the exposure to agricultural technology while improving financial independence, career readiness, and nutrition literacy. From introducing students to high-level farming techniques to managing twelve beehives, the farm has garnered both national and local attention from Forbes Magazine, The News and Observer, and Earth Eats. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
