How can you turn away
Thinking so cheap?
Some day you're gonna pay!
You're keeping secrets
I can see in your eyes:
Can anybody tell me
Why the big disguise?”

“There are two most powerful days in your life: the day you're born, and the day you discover why.”

Boniface Mwangi (1983) Kenyan photojournalist

The day I stood up alone
Context: There are two most powerful days in your life: the day you're born, and the day you discover why. That day standing up in that stadium shouting at the President, I discovered why I was truly born, that I would no longer be silent in the face of injustice.
