TRANSCULTURAL AMAZONS!…
Carrying their CULTURAL VALUES UNDER THE CLOAK OF MOTHER NATURE.
SCARED BUT STRAIGHT.

We are daring and courageous,
Virtuous and independent,
Fearless and resilient,
Fierce and sensational.
We are not flawless but have scars.
Scars caused by Political injustice, Religious ideology, Outdated culture/tradition and prejudice.
We have successfully connected and embraced both cultures (African and western culture).
We are aware of the injustice done and still being done.
We have made peace with our past,
We love the present,
We have distanced our ourselves from the ROLE OF THE VICTIM and we have now become the ARCHITECT AND AUTHOR OF OUR FUTURE/DESTINY.

Mama Africa!
My root,
a permanent anchor in my heart,
where I can withstand all the storms of life.
The values you taught me are still worth fighting for.
Our hopes are not lost forever!
