Read what is happening to the common people of Zimbabwe, thanks to the politicians.

Hunger and Aids kill a generation

Remember Me- Lucky Dube (in concert)

Lucky Dube is a great Reggae star from South Africa. This song tells the story of a child whose father has left home to go to the city to find work in order to support his family. The result is a fatherless home and a broken home. This is the story told by the child.

This song was born in the troubles of apartheid. It is also the story of many Zimbabwean families today as family members must go to South Africa, Botswana or beyond in order to support families back in Mugabe's Zimbabwe.

Listen to the words carefully. And cry along.

Take Them All Over

"Take Them All Over" is the latest Letter from Zimbabwe by Cathy Buckle

Freedom Fighters

Mugabe claimed to be a "Freedom Fighter" during the struggle for independence. He actually became one, in the fullest George Carlin sense, after becoming ruler of Zimbabwe. (To be accurate, he gained power by being a George Carlin freedom fighter. He only perfected the art after becoming prime minister/president of Zimbabwe.)

Rock Bottom

Here is the latest Letter from Zimbabwe by Cathy Buckle. It is now a land of absurdity.

Oliver "Tuku" Mtukudzi - Neria

Oliver "Tuku" Mtukudzi is one of my favorite Zimbabwean musicians. This is an especially beautiful song in which he gives encouragement to a widow to be strong in spite of her troubles.

"Musaora moyo, kaNeria, Mwari anewe."

"Don't worry, little Neria, God is with you.""

Zimbabwe is a land of contrasts. Traditional and modern exist side by side. Unfortunately, today more and more people are being torn from traditional life and denied access to modern life.

Henry Olonga - Our Zimbabwe

Henry Olonga was a cricket star in Zimbabwe playing for the national team. He had to go into exile because of his oposition to the oppression of the Robert Mugabe government. This song expresses the vision the young people of Zimbabwe had for a unified Zimbabwe prior to the path Mugabe chose for the nation at the turn of the millenium.

Let the vision be revived!
