The Congolese dream

By Tshombé Key Richard

We've all heard of the American dream and, more recently, the French dream. But is there such a thing as a Congolese dream? If so, has it ever been uttered, and by whom? How can it be distinguished from other dreams? Finally, what is its political, socio-cultural and economic usefulness? Tshombe attempts to answer these and many other questions. To speak of a nation's dream is to explore the forces that structure it, both horizontally (between contemporaries) and vertically (between generations), and give it a special place in the concert of nations. This dream reflects its uniqueness, its identity, in short what makes it unique. The dream of a nation is neither the dream of the majority of its citizens, nor the dream of the majority in power, although they may echo it. It is the dream of its founding fathers Tshombe's reflection is much more than a quest for identity; it is also, and above all, a personal political manifesto for collective use. It is also a memorandum aimed above all at young people and those who wonder whether, in an African context, history still has meaning.
