Voices That Demand Justice: A Poetry Call to Stop the Bleeding

January 30, 2026

TrustAfrica is proud to unveil a powerful poetry production created as part of the African Debt Campaign – Stop the Bleeding. Featuring four exceptional artists—KILLA ACE, PHINDU, MARUMBO, and WANJIRA—this production brings raw emotion, sharp insight, and creative brilliance to one of Africa’s most urgent challenges: the rising debt crisis and the devastating impact of illicit financial flows. Through vivid storytelling and bold expression, these poets bring to life the human realities behind the statistics—giving voice to communities whose struggles and resilience often go unheard.

As an active member of the Stop the Bleeding Consortium (STBC), TrustAfrica places public mobilisation and grassroots engagement at the centre of its work. Our commitment is rooted in strengthening community-led advocacy and ensuring that citizens have the tools and platforms to influence policies that shape their lives. Over the years, we have witnessed the extraordinary role that arts and culture play in sparking dialogue, awakening political consciousness, and driving social transformation. Creatives are not just contributors to this movement—they are catalysts who expand its reach and deepen its impact.

This poetry production embodies our belief in the power of creative activism to inspire change, build solidarity, and challenge systems that drain the continent’s resources. We invite you to watch, share, and amplify these voices—voices calling with clarity and conviction to Stop the Bleeding and protect Africa’s future.
