WinterABC2022 Stories of Awareness: African Women

African Woman

I celebrate you because you have a good heart.  You have proved that all skin types are beautiful. Thank you for turning your house into a home.

Dear African woman I applaud you for your creativity, you have woven beautiful crafts. Your crafts celebrate the African culture and tell the African story. I celebrate the African women who are mother figures in their communities and families. Women who have preached the gospel of love, kindness and gratitude through their acts.

I celebrate the African women who have refused to be silenced but have chosen to speak out. Women have questioned culture and have used their voices to speak out for others.
