Broken Chords

I usually have daily routines where I take time and find quiet places to think 

As I am one of those fools that despise the idea of finding a book to read

I walked down a path one day till I reached a river 

Only to find a vulnerable girl holding a rope and oh she couldn't help but shiver.

I quickly reached out as she was tying the last knot

"Hold on," I said to her but she quickly responded, "am Opting out"

Kingsli: It is Evident We Abandoned Them

Kingsli is a Zimbabwean young entrepreneur residing in Birmingham. He is a youth representative for the homeless in parliament. Kingsli speaks about how Zimbabwean men don't appreciate their women enough in this thoughtful poem

                                           

 A Brother's Feet in Heels

Yes, they are strong black women of color,
And they were made to be with a black brother.

They need time and attention just like the rest,
They strive each day to survive and give us best.

It is evident that they have been abandoned by men, yes us. Men.
We no longer  appreciate all they do over and again.

Is it their hair, skin and their ability to be strong,
They struggle each day to look good and belong.

My Sister's Dignity - Week of Shame

Millions of girls in Sub-Saharan Africa are dis-empowered by the simple biological process of menstruation. 

Menstruation is one of the most common and uniquely female experiences. Unfortunately, the reality is that around the world millions of girls and women struggle to manage their monthly periods. First periods are a very stressful time in any girl’s life, but add to this acute poverty and you have a seriously miserable situation. Many young girls are not provided with sanitary towels at home because their families cannot afford them and food takes priority. They may not even have underwear.
