She has traveled her path and had the courage to grow and change while retaining her deep commitment to Pan – Africanism. Love flourishes, after all is said and done.

How we have known how to bestow on our senses a passport to everything superficial, on our thoughts a divine desire for wanton gambling and false conclusions! - how we have from the very beginning understood how to retain our ignorance so as to enjoy an almost inconceivable freedom, frivolity, impetuosity, bravery, cheerfulness of life, so as to enjoy life!
Friedrich Nietzsche
