F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter
Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Post Pandemic:- Metamorphosis or transformation?
Metamorphosis and transformation both indicate changes. One of the major difference I feel is, in metamorphosis, situation can’t be reversed . If a caterpillar changed in to the butterfly, can’t go back in pupa stage or Larvae stage. Butterfly needs to learn flying instead of relearning crawling like larvae.
After Pandemic, situation is changed a lot for many people who can’t go back into the situation as it was before pandemic. Now, they have to start from current situation. Need to change habits, and train themselves for survival in the new situations. One of the examples of metamorphosis type situation is where people lost their earning young family member. In such situation, people need to start fresh also in very late age.
In that case, society has to change their behaviour as well and at last the governments has to look and modify their safety net programs and policies.
One of the major challenges in starting as a fresh is debt, people who are indebted to private money lenders before covid or during covid could be in dilemma.
A good holistic research is needed to learn what exactly is happening at the ground level.
