were, it was a time when we said:]<br />
"Perhaps this is the year when<br />
they come to kill me. I don't<br />
know." All the parent were saying:<br />
"I don't know about this year,<br />
will I be able to raise my<br />
children? Truly, the only thing we<br />
saw was that, on November 24,<br />
Mobutu took over.<br />
F: Mm-hmm.<br />
T: We had our doubts, every one <strong>of</strong><br />
us. "Oh well," it was said, "he is<br />
someone from the lower Congo, what<br />
do you expect? [claps] <strong>The</strong>re will<br />
be trouble." Others said: "Oh,<br />
perhaps..." But we did not know.<br />
F: Mm-hmm.<br />
T: <strong>The</strong> truth is, we soon saw that<br />
he knew how to take control <strong>of</strong><br />
things, as he does up to this day.<br />
F: Mm-hmm.<br />
T: We have peace and tranquility,<br />

we travel -- I walk around with<br />
strength [no longer fearing] I<br />
will be chased away from this<br />
place.<br />
F: Mm-hmm.<br />
T: Yes. I don't worry that someone<br />
will shoot me with an arrow or<br />
another is going to chase me. Now<br />
you begin to walk with strength,<br />
telling yoursel<br />
F: "I live in my own country."<br />
F: Mm-hmm.<br />
T: Yes.<br />
F: [reading from painting] "Long<br />
live the three Z?"<br />
T: "Long live the three Z?" That<br />
stands for <strong>Zaire</strong>, the currency,<br />
<strong>Zaire</strong>, the river, <strong>Zaire</strong>, the<br />
country.<br />
F: Yes, mm-hmm. This is the first<br />
painting we bought.<br />
T: Ah, this one, that was day I<br />
met you.<br />
