The importance of the Sankofa bird

Sometimes history seems so irrelevant and some say it is time to move on. But how can we truly move on without understanding our past? If we do so we run the risk of repeating the same mistakes in even a higher degree at worst. So we should all seek to understand our history and even that of others in order to make sure that we are making a better future instead of just mindlessly moving on. So don't ever let someone tell you "Get over it" if you have not even fully comprehended what happened in the first place.
