Here's a poem "The Road We Walk"
(Charles ) : For me, "The Road We Walk" reminds me of the actual journey we took, with fear in
our hearts and no certainty ahead. This poem is like a release.
The Road We Walk
With children on the backs, women carry luggages
Darkness comes, sunlight savages
The clouds drape the day and make us lame
Like animals that are friendly and tame.
Looking behind, our huts burnt
Our lands grabbed, our daughters r***d
We have died many times
For we have been stabbed by the daggers of corruption.
No soil left, no grief erased
Hiding in the bush, with no idea to sail
Like the first explores, we're guided by the moon
For the road we walk eases our fear soon.
Courageously, men lead the way
But some children starve to death
For we are unaccompanied and or orphaned
Given hope of a new life in a refugee Camp.
The road we walk, full of mystery
Some women are aged, others are pregnant
Delivering labour in a grieved road
Some lose their lives in limbo of fate and destiny.

If people are still committing su***de in our communities, do we ever wonder what could be the cause!. Or it's just one of the "non-ofourbusiness" incident again?
Let's join hands in addressing these issues, if people are still victims of their mental well being, we still have a lot to do in addressing these issues.

TUMAINI TALENT SHOW
This is a pre-Tumaini event organized by the Tumaini Letu - Malawi that allows young refugees and the surrounding host communities to showcase their talents to the community. But not only that, all these talents cannot be showcased during the Tumaini festival, therefore this is one way to give a chance of showcasing the rest of the talents to the community.
