Description:
In Kenya, the Swahili word harambee has multiple meaning. When a group of people gather to complete a difficult physical task, they often say, “one, two, three ... harambee!!” In this context the words means: “let's go, let's get it done.” A special gathering to raise money for building a church or school is also called a harambee. These gatherings often feature long speeches, music and dancing. In the context of this composition, harambee means 'unity' or 'working together'.
