It's alarming how much women still have to campaign for the smallest of things. Things men would never have to think about. Why are you people so cruel? Let widows be. Let pregnant women be. Let women be. For goodness sake, it's not a crime to be a woman.

This! It's been more than 3 years away from my family and I keep pulling away the more. Just don't ever let shame or any emotional weight keep you away a bit from your people. You're homeless without them

Did you know Ukara is a traditional Igbo textile similar to Adirẹ Alabẹrẹ from Yoruba? It's created using stictch-resist technique of Nsibidi signs and symbols to communicate ideas. My Adire wall art allows the pulse of african history and stories to be carried into homes.
