With the recent events in Morocco and Libya, we would like to wish courage and strength to all. Our hearts go out to our Moroccan and Libyan brothers and sisters. We, as Africans, are ONE, and we can all feel their pains. This message of courage and strength is not only for Moroccans or Libyans, it is for all Africans. A friend from the Caribbeans told me something which has stayed with me: “We may bend” under the weight of whatever life throws at us, “but we do not break!” The baobab tree, present in so many countries of Africa, is a symbol of courage, resilience, and strength. May your feet be planted like the baobab tree and not bend under events.
