a thematic africa-focused journal

visionaries

The theme for the second edition is visionaries.

visionaries can be great leaders, tasked with using their vision to carry the hopes of a country on their shoulders, making nations out of notions of change and betterment. Visionaries can be map-shapers, independence-fighters, ‘normal’ people who see into the future; small people who carry and become that future. Those who dare to dream, from children who want to play in the premiership or become doctors to those who want to lead and follow.

visionaries look forward, look back, introspect, observe, prophesize, predict, hope, reflect, articulate, see, think, be, hear, shape, act, change. They are often heroes, but what do we do with those visionaries who have let us down?

The deadline for the visionaries theme is: 25 September 2011
