Sarah Culberson

Sarah Culberson

Sarah Culberson (born 1976) is a biracial American woman of Mende ancestry from Sierra Leone on her father's side. She is the biological daughter of one of Sierra Leone's 149 chiefdoms. Culberson was adopted one year after her birth by a West Virginia couple and was raised in the United States with little knowledge of her ancestry.

In 2004, Miss Culberson hired a private investigator to track down her roots, and discovered that her father was in fact a prince. Since then, Culberson has established the Kposowa Foundation to alleviate the suffering endured by her people.

She has worked with CONTRA-TIEMPO, a dance group whose goal is to fuse various forms of dance in their performances and create forms of dance that reach audiences without regard to social boundaries.
