In this episode of “Let’s Talk About the Deep Stuff,” Sean Kneese interviews Ntumba, a Congolese poet and activist, about the harsh realities faced by civilians, especially children, in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Ntumba discusses her journey, the Voices for Congo fundraiser, and how she uses poetry to raise awareness about the ongoing conflict and displacement in the DRC. The conversation covers corporate exploitation of the Congo’s resources, the mental health impact of the crisis, and the vital role of the international community in supporting change. Despite the challenges, Ntumba emphasizes the hope for a better future and the strength of Congolese culture.
