Our Mission
Mission of PSDF is to increase consciousness, education and knowledge of the story of the African Diaspora for people of America and the World to foster understanding and tolerance for culture.
Tell the Story...
“Tell the Story...Knowledge is Power” aims to foster success in youth. Implementing conclusions of success studies by universities, Dr. W. E. D. Dubois (Schomburg Collections), creator of Black History Week/Month, Dr. Carter G. Woodson, and many scholars established knowledge of self-history and ancestry were essentials to success for people of African descent. Activity provides access for youth to increase knowledge of self-history and ancestry.
Pass Story of Diaspora Forward, Inc. is the reality of the inspiration of Jordyn Ash, a 13 year old. Her journey began to reach this point when she was 3 years old. She asked her grandfather, “GP why you like that?” This question led to the writing of “The Story GrandPa Told of American and World African Legends and Culture,” the reference book for the activity “Know Our Story … Knowledge Is Power.”
At the completion of the writing, she was featured in several press releases including a webinar for UN Recognition of People of African Descent. A short video was submitted to the Presidential Youth Video Festival (President Obama’s last festival) when she was 10 years old. During this video, Jordyn created the name for the 501(c)3 organization, Pass Story of Diaspora Forward, Inc. Her desire was for her generation and others to “Know Our Story … Knowledge Is Power.”
