In a bustling city, where towering buildings cast shadows and exhaust fills the air, a hidden struggle unfolds. Olamide silently prayed for her lost wealth while her stomach scavenged for her last meal with a growling sound. Amidst the monotony, Olamide gazes out the bus window, longing for peace in the midst of the chaos that engulfs her mind.
Suddenly, a celestial being appears—a black angel, a symbol of forgotten brilliance and stolen treasures. The angel's defiant gaze reflects the resilience of a community, while her outstretched hand offers hope. Overwhelmed with emotion, Olamide felt her burden lifted, and a renewed wave of hope descended on her. She steps off the bus, ready to honour her heritage and fight against barriers. With each stride, she embraces her culture, knowing that true liberation lies in embracing her truest form and realising that every mistake is a design of nature.
The black angel is a reminder of hope, urging us to recognise the richness of black culture and strive for a brighter future.
