When Giants Fall: The Silent Cry of Climate Change
Imagine a grand shujaa, a warrior so resilient he’s faced more battles than a mzee telling war stories by the bonfire. For almost a thousand years, this warrior stood tall, roots deep in the soil, branches reaching for the sky, weathering storms like a champ.
