“The thing I like about Disruption is the diversity of the voices. The voices themselves come from all over the African continent. Another thing that interested me is that most of the stories in Disruptions chose the theme of climate change. It means that climate change is really a threat on the African continent. Most Africans, especially the rural ones, who are the majority, still live by the soil. Their self-sustenance is still from the soil, so climate change affects them directly more than any other person. That part fascinated me, to see that most of them indirectly chose the theme of climate change, whether from drought or floods. Also, what I like about it is the way the stories themselves showcase that the Africans are not helpless, passive individuals. They are adapting to this changing world. They are coming up with solutions to make their world even better.” Read more...
