The word immigrant to so many like me, it signifies someone with a dream; a dreamer. I am Nancy Mulemwa Siisii. I was born and raised in Zambia, Africa, but I later migrated to America and settled in New York where I’ve been living for 20 years. As a dreamer, I have and continue to have a passion for making substantive bonds with audiences, and helping to inspire people to reach for their dreams. Being an immigrant has been one of the most challenging and extraordinary experiences of my life. It inspired me to start my podcast “Concrete Pastures: An African Immigrant Story” as a platform to reach out to fellow immigrants and dreamers.

Cedric Muhikira is the author of Libaax: Grow Your Roots Where You Land, a poignant exploration of identity and belonging. Hailing from a culture rich in storytelling, Cedric grew up surrounded by narratives shared over tea and during long walks home—tales that spoke of migration, struggle, and love. These experiences ignited his desire to weave his own stories.
Though he didn't pursue formal writing education, Cedric honed his craft by immersing himself in the lives of others, particularly those navigating the complexities of dual identities. This rich tapestry of experiences shaped *Libaax*, which follows the journey of Ayaan, a Somali immigrant striving to forge a new life in Detroit. While Ayaan's story is fictional, it resonates with real emotions—displacement, hope, heartbreak, and resilience.
Writing Libaax was Cedric's own leap of faith, mirroring Ayaan's journey within the narrative. He seeks to illustrate that home is not merely a physical location but a space we create with intention and perseverance.
With a passion for stories that bridge cultures, Cedric honors the duality of our origins and aspirations. If you've ever felt caught between two worlds or carried the essence of home in your heart, Libaax is a book that speaks to you.
