Last March 11th we made a claim to boldness in line with the International Women’s day theme “Be Bold for change ” and OBR’s theme on solidarity against the exploitation of women and girls ” We rose and danced and played rugby to assert our claim to boldness. Our special thanks goes to The Girls Legacy and Judith Dembetembe Chiyangwa. We celebrate you for creating a bold space to empower girls and inspire grown women like me. My heartfelt thanks also goes to the following people of great courage Kessia Magosha, Monique Wilson, Colani Hlatjwako, Lucida Evans, Kamla Bhasin, Jessica Eva Montoya, Andres Naime, I threw out my fear to not rise this year by following your 2017 Risings.You’ve been greatly inspirational.
