It tears my heart to say that my father, Ngugi Wa Thiong'o passed away earlier today. I am me because of him in so many ways, as his child, scholar and writer. I love him - I am not sure what tomorrow will bring without him here. I think that is all I have to say for now.

Juneteenth is more than history — it’s a testimony. A testimony to the faith that carried freedom across time and territory. A testimony to the truth that justice may be delayed, but never denied. Hear Dean Walker reflect on the meaning of this day for our shared life and future.
