About Us
Ancestralism is a spiritual and cultural system that focuses on the practice of Afrikan people venerating their ancestors.
It is a system that provides a unifying method for Afrikan people around the world under cultural virtues and values.Throughout the Afrikan continent, one of the common historical and current practices among various spiritual systems is the practice of ancestor veneration. Ancestor veneration starts with nature and the beginnings of creation all the way down to our most recent ancestors. Afrikan people knew and understood that there is no us without those who came before us.
Ancestralism is not just a concept, it is practicing a living connection with our ancestors. By venerating and having a living connection with our ancestors we gain the knowledge, wisdom, experience, models to emulate, and clarity to assist us with life in the present and future. We utilize Ancestralism to learn from our ancestor’s experiences, accomplishments, and mistakes while simultaneously staying connected to our history and culture.
Ancestralism is practiced at Ancestralism Cultural Centers (ACC) by Afrikan people who understand the importance of our ancestors and who strive to live by the established virtues and values.
