The Ion Hewn | Urban Adinkra | The Common Cause
Introduction: The Akan proverb about Funtummireku and Denkyemmireku tells us that even though family groups may possess some similarities it is known that we are still individuals. The paradox of the story is that both these crocodiles were eating the same meal yet they fought over who should have the food.
Description: The Common Cause is a cast medal replica of the Funtummireku Denkyemmireku Adinkra symbol. This particular symbol signifies of unity, democracy and an acknowledgement of mankind’s cultural diversities. Funtummireku Denkyemmireku is based on an Akan myth about two crocodiles who quarreled over their individual needs though they shared a common struggle.
Other Products: This medal was designed in union with The Blacksun Bloodmoon graphic novel series character Kindred Eden. The Boutique Graven offers an Urban Adinkra medal for each of the thirteen main characters from the Blacksun Bloodmoon graphic novel series.
Ms.Kindred Eden Dossier: Visionary, counselor and cipher controller. Kindred is more than what is seen. Focused on mending the traumas of yesterday, remembering today’s triumphs and keeping her eyes on tomorrow’s prize, Kindred has mastered the rigors of translating the mapping out the soul. Though her eyes have seen with clarity the beauty of the heavens, she peeks through eyes clouded with tears, sweat and blood to grab for that pressurized jewel that crowns us faithful or cast us out of G_ds’ grace. Pray that your eyes never meet. Kindred is often in fellowship with Iona.
