Today as we commemorate #SouthSudan10Years let us continue to raise the voices of women, listen to their stories & narratives and let their wisdom guide us to do better in this the next decade. #NoTimetoMourn
Finally got done reading this beautiful book and just like @TabanloLiyong said, "#SouthSudan has a literature" The fact that these stories/poems tackle serious subject matters without sugarcoating everything to make it easier for the reader to deal with them is amazing.
No Time to Mourn I wrote this poem in Torit while thinking about every brain, hand, life and body that contributed to the South Sudan we have today!

Great launch of #NoTimeToMourn this evening. Such powerful recitals full of love, sorrow, and hope in #SouthSudan.
Expect to see more from these inspiring women over the coming years. In the meantime go buy the book!
@notimetomourn1 is a book written by 🇸🇸 young talented ladies explaining how the nation have gone through pain of concurrently losing their lovely ones which gives no chance to mourn nor burry your own person.
Listening to those poets gives hope at the end of tunnel
