The New World Afrikan (NWA) Symbol Contest is a charge to all descendants of Afrikans born and raised in America, who once embraced the mind and philosophy of the European and now embrace the mind and philosophy of the Indigenous Afrikan, to create a symbol which reflects such ideology (like a Adinkra Symbol).

The winner of the contest will be announced at the Kujichagulia Kwanzaa Celebration on December 27th between 6 and 9pm, at Greater Beulah Baptist Church, 6056 Central Ave, Capitol Heights, MD 20743, as well as have the symbol sewn into the Underground Railroad Quilt that is currently being sewn. All other entries will be considered for our New World Afrikan (NWA) Symbol Dictionary. Last day for submission is 5pm, Saturday, December 21st.

Our vision is to partner with the African American Holiday Association for the creation of a New World Afrikan Holyday in 2020 of the Gregorian Calendar in which we celebrate our living of Indigenous Culture with our Indigenous Minds while living in America in these modern times.

Contest is free however there is a $5 suggested donation for the Kugichagulia event
