We’re screening Mahamat-Saleh Haroun (@mahamatsaleh.haroun) film Lingui, the Sacred Bonds at For Keeps Books (@forkeepsbooks) Saturday, April 2 at 6 PM.

Used in Chad, the term “Lingui” means “bond”. Haroun describes it as a philosophy of living together, sharing the same space and belonging in the same world.

With You and Yours, see you soon 🦋
