SISTERS
SISTERHOOD
BOND
My name is
..
.
..
I give my word
that I will strive to stand up in support of my sisters. I will
give 'her' my hand in support as we struggle together towards our
rightful place as equals in society. Working together, hand in hand,
we shall bring Zimbabwe back to peace, justice and prosperity.
As the struggle
continues, I will remember the following guidelines:
- To speak
out and encourage other women to do the same, so that the female
voice is heard. Women should no longer suffer silently.
- To participate
in peaceful assembly and meetings to discuss our challenges and
to act rather than complain.
- To be a
comfortable shoulder to lean on or a listening ear. 'A problem
shared is a problem halved'.
- To demonstrate
love and courage in our homes and communities so that people can
shake away fear.
- Women are
the mothers of the nation and must demand that Dignity.
- To be a supporter
of Non-violence so that people can see that problems can be solved
peacefully.
- To seek out
and be in solidarity with like-minded women.
- To be God
fearing and encourage activities that promote spiritual health.
- To support
Democratic participation with tolerance for differing views and
opinions.
- "An
injury to one is an injury to all".
I give my word!
