The African continent, where life began, has gifted us with amazing legends who have stood up against injustice and inspired us to be brave. They are kings and queens, warriors and environmentalists, writers and artists, inventors and innovators, thinkers and athletes. Some are women who have led battles against powerful enemies. Others have unique talents which allow them to do things that no one else can do. Legends of the African Sun tells the stories of thirty legendary African women and men. They come from various parts of Africa—East, West, South, and North. From Queen Nzingha of Ndongo, Angola, to Lupita Nyong’o of Nairobi, Kenya, to Desmond Tutu of Klerksdorp, South Africa, these legends defied the odds against them, enacted bold ideas, showed tremendous compassion and bravery, and serve as powerful role models for children. This collection of short biographies helps teach young children about legendary Africans and the problems and issues they confronted on their journeys.
We Come From One Place - Poetry about the ills of racism, sexism, ethno-centricism and nepotism is an anthology that minces no words about things that divide us in this world. With spectacular contributions from Nana Nyarko Boateng, Nana Fredua Agyeman, Basanta Kar, Adjei Agyei Baah, Roland Marke, Vivekanand Jha, Emmanuel Jakpa, Cosmas Mairosi and Lila S Mensah, the anthology serves as a constant reminder as to why we must remain united as one strong unit, not divided into weakened units. We Come From One Place will challenge you to reevaluate how you treat another person; it will probe into your reasons for not enjoying the company of someone from another race or cultural background. The central theme in this anthology is humanity and each poet presents a compelling array of perspectives in their poetry.
