Pumzika kwa amani baba na mama Yangu kwa malezi yenu hapa duniani. Mmeondoka kwa kupishana siku 16 pekee. Alama ya upendo itadumu moyoni Daima. #ripdad&mom

Today is 45th anniversary since labour day 1977 when under the Kenyatta regime 9 policemen visited my house, chopped off my three fingers, injured my whole body and left me for dead. That morning I had preached that Harambee is the Ideology of the Kikuyu middleclass.

1977, Zambia National Service Solwezi Camp. My twin sister Chileshe, myself and Nancy Kalikeka Phiri. Eleven months of beans, 'Sir bwana!', pineapples, jombos, road runs and rifles. Would do it all again!!

Before our independence, the then President of Ghana, Nkwame Nkrumah gifted my father this kente cloth, my father cut it in half and gifted KK the other half. At our 50th Independence celebrations, KK wore his piece as he did on 24th October 1964. We buried my father in his.

In 1964, Miriam Makeba, living in exile as an outspoken fighter against the Apartheid system in South Africa, was the Special Guest Artist during Zambia's Independence celebrations. Miriam Makeba gifted my mother this beautiful gown. She remained exiled for 31 years.

Years ago I researched and put together my family tree going back some 300 years. I made copies for my nieces as a way of passing on our family history and connecting them to the incredibly strong men and women who came before them. This is Natasha's battered, well-thumbed copy.

Found a bunch of sprouting masuku seedlings on a rubbish dump by the roadside. Spent my day transplanting 130 masuku seedlings and teaching my nephew to love trees and the soil! My food forest loading!

I’m very excited to announce that I have been selected as an International Voter for the 81st Golden Globes Awards that will be conducted in early 2024. I’m sending my sincere appreciation to the The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) for bestowing this honor upon me.

Remembering two great mothers on Mother's Day. Helen Jengwera Nyirenda Kaunda and Chileshe Mwansa Mbao Kapwepwe. One raised a President, the other a Vice-President.

Most people remember my father, Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe as a politician. I remember him as an artist; dancer, singer, poet and writer. He even designed his clothes. He recorded this song while studying in India in 1952. Read about it in Leonard Koloko's book, Zambian Music Legends.

Lake Chala from the Tanzanian side🇹🇿 Lake Chala is a crater lake that shares a border between Tanzania and Kenya. I took these in 2019 & I can’t believe it’s been 5 years.
