    Women of Africa by Ahmed Sékou Touré

    Updated:January 19, 20261 Min Read

    Women of Africa,

    Women of the Revolution!

    You will rise up to apex

    You will journey endlessly

    At a walking pace of the social Revolution,

    To the rhythm of cultural progress,

    In the train of economic boom

    To the great and beautiful city 

    Of the exacting ends

    And were in leading 

    Your brothers, your husbands and your children…

    Women of Africa, 

    Women of the Revolution!

    Equality is not offered,

    It must be conquered.

    To emancipate the women 

    Is to rid the society

    Of its blemishes, its deformities.

    The conquest of science,

    The mastery of Technics 

    Will open to the Women the way

    That of intra-social combat 

    Rendering her “subject and no longer object”.
