Özet: This paper aims to underscore the contribution of an African Diaspora family upon returning to their Motherland-Benin, Africa. The agro-ecological primary school Ecolojah, created by the Returnees -Mère Jah and Père Jah-, is addressed in the context of a new educational system that allows rural Sub-Saharan children to learn self-love through a Pan-African inspired curriculum coupled with learning agroecology. From a vantage point, I argue that Ecolojah represents, in certain way, the realization of what the late Carter G. Woodson labeled Africentric School.
