With support from the Christensen Fund. Featuring Anna Akonabo. ‘Life was easy before the invasion. We thought it could remain that way, as CRA made promises’, Anna recalls. Life did not remain that way. Anna remembers protests, and being imprisoned for resisting the theft of land. Then came the crisis. Security forces harassed her village, night after night, week after week. ‘And then they started setting fire to our houses’. ‘Our pigs were slaughtered. Our dogs as well’. Her community fled into the mountains, far away from their gardens and food supply. ‘As the war became serious, we were forced to live a nomadic life and suffered very much’. ‘In our journey, when we were shot at from the helicopter, we would hide under the tree's roots’. During those frightening years, Anna longed for her home. ‘Always will you long to come back to your own place’. Anna is now back home. She says a little prayer by her food garden where her soul connects to eternity.
