Welcome to our UA-cam channel, a vibrant Pan-African platform where youth and technology unite to shape Africa's future. Starting from Mattru Jong, Sierra Leone, we connect Africa and its diaspora, showcasing rural stories globally. African youth use everyday tools to share their communities' essence, making us more than a channel-we're a voice for African life and aspirations. Aligned with the African Union's vision for a self-driven, prosperous Africa, we focus on the continent's burgeoning young population, set to reach over 830 million by 2050. Echoing the African Union's STISA-2024, our channel emphasizes the youth's role in transforming Africa into an innovation-led economy. Join our mission to empower African youth through education, employment, entrepreneurship, and engagement. Be a part of this transformative journey and contribute to a new African narrative. Inspired to partner with us? Contact us at AYM Contact. Let's make history together!
Rebecca Golden's Presentation at the Art About the Sierra Leone Civil War Conference
Rebecca Golden presents at the Representations of Violence: Art About the Sierra Leone Civil War Conference held at the University of Wisconsin - Madison.
Representations of Violence: Art About the Sierra Leone Civil War is a display of 38 paintings and drawings documenting Sierra Leone’s decade long civil war. From 1991 to 2001, the people of Sierra Leone endured a brutal civil war ignored by most of the world. Thousands of innocents, especially children and babies, suffered horrific amputations, rape, mutilation and death. Over 50,000 people died in a conflict invisible to a world community distracted by war in Eastern Europe and the Middle East.
Some people were fortunate to leave Sierra Leone in time. They fled to England, Canada and the United States for refuge and asylum. Today Sierra Leone is calm, some of its citizens are returning home, but the peace is fragile. The people of Sierra Leone are exhausted from a decade of torture and conflict. They struggle each day to support and feed themselves and rebuild their beloved country.
As the people of Sierra Leone struggle to find peace with their neighbors and reconcile their past with their present and future, they are finding their strength and courage in the images and words of their national artists, writers and poets. The process of reclaiming and continuing their lives is slow and painful, but it is a necessary journey to take if a nation of more than five million people is to understand and move beyond the senseless brutality of eleven long years.

"The role of art is to bear witness and speak the unspeakable." - Professor Aliko Songolo What happened in Sierra Leone can happen anywhere.

At the time of the production of this album, all of them were residing at a displacement camp in Freetown because of the eleven-year war. Out of the bitter experiences of losing their homes, being removed from their parents, and being scattered like locusts in faraw...

Outstanding! Please don’t just view, like and share allover social media. Encourage your friends to do likewise. Let it go viral. . It really assists; the more people, do, it will generate money, we all know is needed, for the development of our youths.

I really have big respect for our president BIO despite am APC

False 😂and lies 😅😅😅
They should fine folks that throw away dirt. Give a warning to everyone first; if they don’t follow, take action.
This guy is far fetch from being democratic
You you are not democratic please stop the big joke up on yourself
Bra u 4 dae tlk lek salon man ooo duya sir ... We as a youth we nr dae expect such a message from u as d president of dis Nation
So what's wrong with the message' if i could remember last time samura kamara said if APC are not in power there would be no development and no peace in Sierra Leone 🇸🇱💎 so they all are the same people 😅😅😅😂😂
Great work
Thanks
This tells you people,how low this President thinks about Sierra Leone.No mentioned about development or bringing the APC politicians together so that they can move that country forward.He is not a President of Sierra Leone but for his political SLPP. Really sad.He knows he stole the election, you heard what he said, being popular is not going to make him win the election, they need to do more.He knows that there was no need for the Sierra Leonean could vote for him because he did not do anything tangible for that county.
Are you following what is going on in the development landscape?
Thank you God bless you
You too
Thank you God bless you
It is very obvious that Maada Bio has a loving wife who is prepared to die for her man.
Exactly
Maada Bio is a true Democrat, and that doesn't mean that he doesn't like his opponents. He just loves his party more than the APC.
