Kente is not only the best known of all African textiles, it is also one of the most admired of all fabrics worldwide. Originating among the Asante peoples of Ghana and the Ewe peoples of Ghana and Togo, this brilliantly colored and intricately patterned strip-woven cloth was traditionally associated with royalty. Over time, however, it has come to be worn and used in many different contexts. In Wrapped in Pride, seven distinguished scholars present an exhaustive examination of the history of kente from its earliest use in Ghana to its present-day impact in the African Diaspora. Doran H. Ross is the former director of the UCLA Fowler Museum of Cultural History.
Features the exhibition entitled "Wrapped in Pride: Ghanaian Kente and African American Identity" at the National Museum of African Art of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. from September 12, 1999 to January 2, 2000. This exhibition is a collaboration between the National Museum of African Art and the Anacostia Museum and Center for African American History and Culture.
In this retelling of a tale from Ghana, a wondrous spider shows two Ashanti weavers how to make intricate, colorful patterns in the cloth that they weave.
