PRONOUNS: SHE/HER/HERS
Being an Eritrean woman means having a bloodline of resilience, hope, faith, and determination. I come from a country who by logic should not have been able to win independence against Ethiopia. We were outnumbered, outgunned, and betrayed or abandoned by every ally. However, Eritrea produces determined minds and women who only kneel down for two occasions; to pray and to shoot. Being Eritrean is my biggest blessing. – Asmeret S.
