“In some East and Central African beliefs, the dead are part of dimensions of the past. The sasha are those who exist in the recollections of their loved ones. As long as one is remembered, one lives. When a sasha's last surviving loved one passes away, they become part of the zamani, the true dead. But when our names are spoken and when our stories are told, we are always here, abiding in the minds of our descendants, whether they are kin by blood, or by belonging.”

“It's uncomfortable for me, too. Talking about history isn't about piling blame on you for what your ancestors did way down the line. It's thinking about ,our actions and our choices, in our own times.”
