Dear friends, please kindly support a young Nigerian poet’s dream of a higher education.
Due to lack of funds, Akorede’s @theDilatedSoul dream has been shelved for years but we can help make it happen this year!

What’s happening with Lolwe isn’t uncommon: many magazines across the Global South struggle to sustain paying writers (from their personal income) because of difficult economic realities. All the more reason to read, share, and support the work they do.
This makes me very sad.
Very few publishers pay us young writers in Africa. It makes it extremely hard and inaccessible for low-resourced writers to publish and put work out. Please donate to @Lolwe_ if you can and share their fundraiser....

I met Emeka @aganzeregg at Ake Fest last year. Brilliant mind. Warm soul. The kind of person who makes you fall in love with books and writing all over again.
Today, he risks losing his eyesight. And with it, his dreams.
