Mahindule: The Rise of Congo's Mamas, Healing the Land, One Story at a Time (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798218576516)

Mahindule: The Rise of Congo's Mamas, Healing the Land, One Story at a Time is a gift of love from the Mamas to the greater human family. It is a call for a deeper listening-a way for us to enter into a shared space, to witness and feel the depth of intergenerational colonial trauma alongside the vital and tenacious force of renewal and regeneration that these mamas, children, and young artists of the Kivu region bring into their creative practices. Despite the ongoing violence, their stories are testimonies of strength and the potency of a hope infused with life. It invites us to reflect on the spaces we inhabit, both physical and emotional. It challenges us to transform sites of pain and trauma into sanctuaries of courage and love, in ways similar to how the earth herself metabolizes death and transforms it into fruit-bearing life.
