We Are Still Here: A Story of Africa, Told by Those Who Came Before
Before you, there was us.
From the first footprints pressed into African dust to the birth of the world's newest country, We Are Still Here tells the whole story of a continent — narrated by the ancestors themselves. This is the history of Africa most children never get to read: honest, unflinching, and unforgettable. It celebrates the greatness AND tells the truth.
Meet the Black pharaohs of Kush, the libraries of Timbuktu, the stone city of Great Zimbabwe and the bronzes of Benin. Walk through the hardest chapters — the slave ships, the stolen land — told with gravity, never gore, and always with the truth that the story did not end there.
For readers aged 8–12, families, classrooms and home-schoolers.
"We were never nothing, and we are still here."
