Y.I.W.A.E has been exploring family narratives from a historical angle for 9 years. We explore history to find more answers to
support the documentation and DNA test results. Building a wider narrative than the names & blood that bind the family. Making
links generally overlooked to expand on the stories uncovered.
How it Works
Our Story
You are, I am, We Are Enough are the words we live by and share them with you.
When living in a world where so many people try to stereotype and dictate who we are, we felt it was important that we support others in ensuring their historical genealogy is documented just like all the people we learn about within history.
Who is ensuring your stories will be told in the future?
We explore the historical journeys of your ancestors to enable you to identify patterns or find answers that can only be found by knowing what came before.
The honourable Marcus Mosiah Garvey once said “A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots.”
It is our duty to establish roots for the future generations to have a better start in life and be empowered by their own histories. This will allow them to have much more confidence to be able to stand firm within their convictions.
