Jabulani Ncube
in response to the painting by Paul Levy
My dear friend, the Zimbabwean disability rights advocate, Jabulani Ncube, was a powerful spirit.
This spirit was married to a daunting intellect, a booming laugh and a finger-fusing handshake.
Jabu was one of the founders of the disability movement in Southern Africa.
He died suddenly in 2012 in Namibia.
He was 59.
African sun
woven into cloth
bright tendrils
