[By Bereket Kiros] My article focuses on the Enderta region, where things are upside down and people are persistently deprived of living on their ancestral land.

[By Bereket Kiros] As James Baldwin said, “We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist.” These multicoloured writings in our forum are a sheer delight.
