Revitalized Pan-Africanism: A Focus on People and Community

(Photos: YouTube Screenshots\Wikimedia Commons) - Shaped by a lifetime of exile, conflict, survival, faith, and unwavering hope in truth and justice, my perspective is profoundly influenced by the scars of my history. I am a healer, compelled to educate, lead, and envision a transformed future.Born into a world ravaged by violence, I faced profound loss when my father was murdered during Rwanda's early massacres. My resilient mother, self-taught, raised us in East Africa's refugee camps. This early trauma inspired a vision of not just personal survival, but also national and global rejuvenation.At the core of my beliefs is the intrinsic dignity of every individual, which fuels my commitment to honesty. I contend that true reconciliation cannot stem from forgetfulness; nations must confront their past to heal. Education, for me, transcends mere knowledge acquisition; it embodies liberation. This realization led to the establishment of the Eastern Africa Meta-University, welcoming the marginalized to foster collective growth. My vision extends beyond Rwanda, advocating for a Pan-Africanism grounded in the welfare of the people and a global community united in our shared humanity.
