A Barren Woman Had A Son - Annette Mukakigeri

The legend of a demigod who fathered a nation begins this origin story. As the community he created faces multiple threats, the foundational role of women in leadership that he carves out proves invaluable. Colonial rule, enforcing "scientific racism", then births the new horror of ethnic purges. Many lose access to their history as they are scattered around the world. In the family ancestral journey retold in these pages, previously hidden accounts are restored, and the resilience of the human spirit inspires us anew. An ancient indigenous treasure trove of oral history reaches down through time to tell us anew what happened to them.
