The primacy of community as the source of values that conserve and strengthen identity has been under the onslaught of post-modernity, especially, technological advancements! Cultural resiliency presupposes the ability of that particular culture and its institutions to adapt vis-a-vis internal and external challenges! I really enjoyed this commentary, Ndewo!! Empowerment???

You're completely right about us re-orienting our values, and I love how you addressed the mistreatment of women. These are the things our entire society needs to hear and reflect on.
