‎ይኣክል :: YIAKL

For 30 years Eritrea fought a war to be a free state, and on the 30th year of independence this piece reflects on our current status.

The goals of liberation decay along with the olive wreath; defiled by a dictator refusing to let go of power. Isaias Afwerki has ruled based on fear. There are no other political parties, no freedom of thought or expression. Eritreans, in the diaspora and domestically, are mobilizing for change. Across the seas and within the borders, we chant “YIAKL!” “enough!”.
