Praise for Bearing Witness
“A fervent collection of poems that capture the anguish, resilience and hopes of a people determined to overcome.”
– Imbolo Mbue, author of the New York Times best seller “Behold the Dreamers,” winner of the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction.
“Bearing Witness: Poems from a Land in Turmoil is the record of a people’s collective response to horrendous violence, injustice, and inhumanity. In a highly passionate and elegiac tone, these poets testify in poetic images the violence inflicted on the people of Anglophone Cameroon. Joyce Ashuntantang and Dibussi Tande have done a marvelous job in bringing together these anguished voices against inhumanity in Cameroon. This anthology is a major contribution to African conflict literature.”
– Tanure Ojaide, Frank Porter Graham Professor, The University of North Carolina at Charlotte
