Series II: Stories from Dakar
“Some people say when we are born we’re born into stories. I say we’re also born from stories” -Ben Okri, Nigerian Poet and Novelist
In collaboration with Azil Momar Lo, our team had the honour of being in Dakar in June 2021 to document video stories for Series II.
In a reality that is inordinately complex, it is the stories that give it form and meaning. Our work in Dakar left our team with a deeper sense of gratitude for stories shared.
We are delighted to present Series II: The Dakar Stories, which embody the strength, innovation and kindness that carry our African stories.
To preserve and protect the storyteller’s authentic voice, the stories are published in their original language (Wolof, French, English).
In presenting the Dakar series we would also like to give a special thank you to the various individuals and communities in Dakar, who opened their homes to us, and let us be part of their story.
