/Hai Ha, the mysterious horse rider
/Hai Hab, the Mysterious Horse Rider is a reconstructive folktale rooted in memory, resistance, and myth.
Set during the harsh realities of the apartheid era, the story follows a fearless female horse rider who moves like a whisper across the land of Namibia - unseen, unclaimed, and unforgettable. In a time when freedom was forbidden and voices were silenced, she rises as a symbol of quiet heroism, carrying messages, hope, and defiance to her people.
Blending oral tradition with historical truth, /Hai Hab reimagines courage through a woman’s body and spirit, honouring those who fought not with titles or weapons alone, but with bravery, sacrifice, and ancestral resolve.
This folktale preserves what history often forgets: the unnamed heroes, the women who rode against fear, and the enduring power of resistance passed down through story.
A tribute to resilience, identity, and liberation—/Hai Hab invites readers to remember, to believe, and to ride alongside a legend born of necessity and hope.
