Jack F. Kennedy once said: "History is made by those who write it." This quote still holds true today. Unfortunately, the vast majority of information we know about our own past and present, has been and continues to be written by non-Eritreans. In order to combat this we need to write about our country, people and culture.

Q: Can I choose to remain anonymous?

A: Yep.
