Recognise the lady on this book cover? You have likely seen her face on a Malawian Kwacha note – and perhaps wondered what she did to earn her spot in Malawian history.
Production is underway at Logos Open Culture for a ground-breaking work on Malawi’s celebrated Rose Chibambo.
In Lomathinda: Rose Chibambo Speaks, Malawian scholar Timwa Lipenga takes the reader on her journey in conversation with Chibambo.
Chibambo started and led the women’s independence movement against imperial Britain. She forged a path in politics for many men and women to follow.
Chibambo made Malawian history. She was Malawi’s 1st Permanent Secretary of Natural Resources.
The book is anticipated for launch in late 2019.
