as well as BRAVERY AND HEROIC DEEDS, GLORIOUS ACCOMPLISHMENT, and DURABILITY

as taken from: http://www.marshall.edu/akanart/abrammoo_abramobe.html

From the proverb: Akyem tete a, eka ne mmeramu.   

Literal translation: When a shield wears out, the framework still remains.   
The good deeds of people live after them.
This symbolizes bravery as well as the durability and the enduring nature of the distinguished deeds of a great person.
Shemhotep

"There is something dreadfully wrong
with an education/socialization process
that leaves us ignorant of our past,
strangers to our people, apes of our
oppressors, and creatures of habitual,
shallow thought, and trivial values."
-Dr. Asa G. Hilliard,III

"general group behavior patterns matter
more than individual exceptions. and
past group behavior is indicative of
future group behavior." - yuckwheat

"Everyone has their myths which is
fine. However when one parades "myth"
as "fact" especially concerning ANOTHER
group of people independent of the said
myth-making group then we have a
problem. The myth now becomes a LIE." -
