THINGS WE VALUE

environment

By the shade of a mango tree upfront my parents house, we have grown. They, our parents, growing up, also got counseled there. Its branches and leaves know not only our ways, but the dreams our forefathers had for us. We’ve all been fed by its fruits, and are glad it has sealed its mouth on our family’s struggles and secrets. Whoever planted it is long gone. Whoever will witness its death may yet to be born. Mulembe Nation celebrates her and her kind. And lay plans to plant and nurture more of her type.

the children and youth

Through interviews with young and old mulembe personalities, we seek to be the salt of the world. With our growing library of folktales and chats with mulembe elders, we define values.

respect

Life is one body of knowledge.

food

Good food. Responsible food. Health food. Food as a glue between men. It is Chinua Achebe who said: "A man who calls his kinsmen to a feast does not do so to save them from starving. They all have food in their own homes. When we gather together in the moonlit village ground it is not because of the moon. Every man can see it in his own compound."
