🕊️ Remembering a literary giant: Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o, who challenged colonial legacies and reshaped our understanding of language and identity.
#africamonth #ripngugiwathiongo
It tears my heart to say that my father, Ngugi Wa Thiong'o passed away earlier today. I am me because of him in so many ways, as his child, scholar and writer. I love him - I am not sure what tomorrow will bring without him here. I think that is all I have to say for now.
