====Words from Gabriellet T. Guillaume about Mama Afrika===

Africa, apparently the original land of life and humanity, becomes more and more the land of suffering and misery. Of this vast continent, the West receives nothing but sounds of war and of tribulations, of famine, of genocide, and of desolation. We discuss and speak of it in large assemblies, but the children of Africa continue their ordeal. They cry their desperation and strong will to live to all those, here and abroad, who have ears to hear and a heart to understand.
