Women of Africa,
Women of the Revolution!
You will rise up to apex
You will journey endlessly
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".
Ahmed Sékou Touré (1922 - 1984) Guinea
