Ibrahim Traore’s Speech to African Christians and Moslems
Discurso de Ibrahim Traoré a Los Cristianos Africanos
Love is the Gold (Rare Earth) Of Spirit. ~aw
I weep often and I don’t care that others might not. Tears happen for a reason. They are a sign that our spirit has not been deadened, has not died, completely. Listening to this son of ours, how can we not weep for recognition of the dream? That the light would dawn and we would be awake and encouraged by our journey of struggle and prayer, to see it. There is always another whole distance to travel, too. Always. Beyond churches and mosques, beyond society, beyond even revolutions. There is always more to the road than what we guessed at its bend. But with a foundation we trust we can carry on, freeing others as joyfully as we released our own chains. ~aw
