"The story is our escort; without it we are blind. Does the blind man own his escort?
No neither do we the story, rather it is the story that owns us and directs us”
Chinua Achebe, Nigerian novelist

"God created human beings for laughter, for caring, for sharing – for interdependence. Sadly, in a world of materialism and survival of the fittest the opposite often pertains, the focus of attention is on gratifying the individual. Africans have a wealth and depth of spirituality and compassion that has enabled many ordinary people to become extra-ordinary, to rise above their circumstances of poverty and deprivation and to become glorious examples of compassion and courage. It is this wellspring of stories that People of Africa seeks to plumb to enrich us and to deepen within each one of us our sense of responsibility to ensure that our world becomes a better place for all."

People of Africa Patron and Member Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu.
