Ngugi wa Thiongo, you were a definition of what a true Pan African is. Try as you did to change the form of literature, the enemies were far, and around, watching you to fail. Once, you had wept alone to change the narrative but now that you are gone, you'll weep no more.

Rest in peace, l'enfant noir!
