- Summary:
- "Amandla: Born of the First Congo War" is a journey through the 1996-1997 Congo war as experienced by a young Congolese at an early stage of his childhood. The tale depicts a story of naïve adventure covered in childhood bliss and leading to a first-time encounter with a world of violence and armed conflict. It also paints the birth of a humanitarian and a proud global citizen, an advocate for peace and humanism: proof that chaos carries the seed of order. It is a story of millions of others like the author who are trying to serve humanity despite their tragic pasts."-- Back cover.
