Back in the 70's and 80's, the media was full of stories about a famine-ridden Ethiopia.
It was not that pleasant to be Ethiopian, to say the least.
I am sure every Ethiopian has asked humbly why this country suffered from such things as droughts and wars.
Interesting Historical Discoveries
But as of recently some interesting historical discoveries have slowly but surely been unfolding.
Some of these discoveries were kept out of sight due to political conflict of interest, (as the Pankrusts had a kind of monopoly on documenting the past history of Ethiopia some 40 or so years ago).
An example is an old manuscript or recorded history from way back 6-4 thousand yeas before Christ, found at a place called Nubia, in present time Sudan. This document could not see the light of day until recently!
Easier To Speak Up Now
Those writers, historians, and poets that have been muffled are gaining back their voices and are able to speak out like never before.
Such a historian is Dr. Fikre Tolossa--- A poet, Author, historian, musician and more.
He has been able to translate into the English language some of these historical documents.
Great To Be Ethiopian Once Again
It has become possible to be proud of being an Ethiopian. It is possible to walk the earth with a raise head.
