At the Heart of Resistance
Made up of footage gathered in Zimbabwe, At The Heart of Resistance captures the spirit of a unique campaigning group – Women of Zimbabwe Arise – whose clarion call is 'The power of love can conquer the love of power'.
The coming into force of the Protocol on the Rights of Women in Africa was a high point for the African women's movement in 2005. We thank Fahamu and Pambazuka News for ensuring that Africans everywhere knew about the protocol and for the many creative ways in which they encouraged Africans to seize hold of the equality and justice agenda that the protocol embodies. - L. Muthoni Wanyeki, director of FEMNET
