The Story
The Otitọ brand inspiration
When I followed my deep desire to find out the circumstances surrounding my birth I found more than I could imagine. I found a resilient story of my birth parents and my ancestors. The beautiful and challenging history was a story of survival from as far back as I can find. Stories of Holocaust survival in Eastern Europe and stories of slavery as my paternal ancestors were pulled from the Western shores of Africa. We were Yoruba people. The Yoruba are one of the largest ethnic groups in Africa and are a very sociable and expressive people who commemorate major events with colorful festivals and celebrations.
Otitọ means “Truth”
By following the clues, I found the source of my strength and the reason for my existence. I found my family, my truth and my Otitọ. My hope is through my brand that others may be encouraged to do the same.
