As i celebrate, commemorate and reflect on this day " Africa Day"..
I carry alot of gratitude to where I come... the stages of life where mom had to keep the house going with no means yet also had to make sure food and school needs are in place..
I remember the tear gas cans thrown all over my township owambolokasie and surely all over.. I remember growth and changes taking place within our community as children were able to play on the streets freely..
Today I magnify many experiences as lessons learned for these better days of being able to participate and represent who we are as Namibians thus I brace my Pan Aficanism at all levels with a consciousness of all the evil issues we are experiencing that is clearly fuelled my our political environments who carry a doctrine of patriarchy yet the evolution of life have not taught many a lesson that alot of revolutions have been achieved with and by characters and collectives who believed in equality and non discrimination. .
I am yet to witness many more triumph crafted and shaped by Africans for Africans... This tatoo on my body reminds and magnifies alot within me and what I believe in...

I am a young African Woman who writes what I experience and feel at that moment... I believe in freedom of expression and spirit as it is the only way one would connect with oneself... I am Free within - Are you?
