INTERVIEW Neema Namadamu: “Community is Family”

“Everyone has community. We’re one community. One global family. Community is a family. And it’s why we must build that community, that is for people, for human beings. And people can be proud about community where ever they are from. I’m proud to be a woman and I’m proud to be in my community, too. All Women Rising is an organization based in the Congo—with all the violence against women, rape or war, we are rising. And when we are rising we build a community. And with indigenous people, with all community around, we are trying to get that unity.” – Neema Namadamu
