The Capstone Project and Reflections is the final stage of the Kemet/Afrikan Creation Story course, where learners synthesize their knowledge from all four modules—The Shabaka’s Stone: Kemetic Cosmology and Wisdom, The Nun State, Emergence of Ptah/Turbulence, and Atum & Creation—into a comprehensive final project. Over three weeks, participants will choose a topic that resonates with their interests and present an original project or analysis. This phase encourages reflection on the broader significance of Afrikan leadership, governance, and spirituality, and how these concepts apply to contemporary life.
