by Victoria Ngangu from her book:
IN THE HEART OF OUR SOULS
From the Poor Country of Congo to American Author
Victorine Ngangu and her great-grandfather were not paid for work they did because of their ethnicity.
When Victorine Ngangu discovered that a photographer and one of her friends had forged her signature so that they could sell Ngangu’s photographs to a major U.S. company, she was outraged. Without her knowledge and consent, 144 of her photographs were sold. Ngangu was never paid and did not receive an apology from the photographer, her friend or the company. Those people walked free of charge in the court of law. In 2012, Ngangu filed a case with local police to bring them to justice but received no satisfaction.
Victoria Ngangu's books are available in English and French:
