Comme la plupart des Congolais dispersés à travers le monde, les Congolais d’Atlanta célébreront le 49ème anniversaire de l’Indépendance de la RD Congo.

Ci-dessous, le message nous transmis par les responsables de cette communauté à tous les membres de la ville, via monsieur Ben Kalala, Président de cette communauté.

Chers congolais, Belgo-congolais, amis du Congo et de l'Afrique,

Mardi 30 juin 2009: Voici 49 ans que le pays de lumumba est ''indépendant"!
Quel bilan?
Que reste t-il encore de cet héritage?
Qu'avons-nous fait du Congo 49 ans après?
Interrogeons ensemble l'histoire pour essayer de comprendre notre actualité!
Alors nous vous invitons à venir pas seulement ''fêter'' mais réfléchir ensemble autour d'un spectacle
au titre évocateur:

This is a reminder to join Congolese women activists this Sunday, June 14 for a Benefit production and panel discussion of "Ruined." Read comments from Jane Fonda and Oprah's recent viewing of the play.

Kinshasa, 8 June 2009 – Operations to update the electoral register began in the DR Congo’s capital Kinshasa on Sunday, 7 June 09 as scheduled.

Dear Friend,

The Manhattan Theatre Club and the Off-Broadway play “Ruined” have provided a platform for the women of the Congo to share with the global community the nature of the conflict in the Congo, its impact on Congolese women and how each and every one of us can play a role in bringing an end to the unnecessary suffering of the women of the Congo.

Congolese women will participate in a forum hosted by Congo Global Action, Friends of the Congo and Ellen Stone Belic Institute at Columbia College, Chicago on Sunday, June 14, 2009, 2 PM, following the production of the Pulitzer winning play “Ruined.” The June 14th production of “Ruined” is a benefit fundraiser in support of the work of Friends of the Congo and Congo Global Action. Proceeds from the sale of tickets will go to support the work of these two organizations with women in the Congo.

You can support our efforts by purchasing tickets for this historic event.
