Freedom Afrika

Noodle Church escapes solitary confinement to stand with people against bombs, bullets, powders, and policemen. Found journeying across three continents, bringing a pack which rarely comes off his back, and wearing canvas pants he’s accustomed to sleeping in, Africans procure Noodle a home so he mustn’t live on the street during the holidays.

At wildland that unfolds along a thousand kilometers of rugged coast to document life in the system enslaving people with cameras and clandestine surveillance, someplace so remote footpaths replaced roads, Noodle thought he’d discovered freedom. But, where bulls basked in sun by the beach, he found wardens track him. A provocateur gained Noodle’s trust to compromise him so men riding dirt-bikes could push this blue-stained boy beyond the bounds of Freedom Inc.’s law.

Noodle fled into the wild without clean water or shelter before returning to the floor of an African snack shop where he awoke last Christmas. After fighting a twenty-year-long war, townspeople who’d witnessed brothers being shot, poisoned, and burned alive proclaimed, “If men wearing white suits and masks attached to breathing apparatuses allege Noodle Church has a rare disease nobody’s heard of then it doesn’t matter because we fought for independence. We’ll never let wardens take him, even if they say it’s a matter of national security!”

Freedom Afrika teaches people need food, water, shelter, and love to live. Love is all Noodle needed!
