The Empire of Silence

The Empire of Silence

“The Congo has been torn apart by violence for over 35 years. The Congolese people have been subjected to massacres for more than two decades, while the international community, faced with national and international impotence, stands idly by. My country is being systematically plundered by people who claim to be our leaders! Almost half of the MPs believe that they can kill to gain access to resources. Those who have committed crimes, including some who have burnt down more than 100 houses and committed terrible crimes, have been appointed colonels or generals.”

Kurator:in

My name is Shamila, I am Congolese, born and raised in the Congo. Despite all the difficulties of the war, we managed with great effort and God's grace to complete school up to the second grade. KINO ASYL is my anti-stress remedy; it gives me the strength to express my pain in front of others, to be fearless, and to trust myself. My hobbies are writing and reading, and I like politics and fashion.
