Agasake

✨✨Do you know what it's?✨✨ 🤔Let's discovered it together 😊🤗It's name is Agaseke.💥Agaseke is a traditional Rwandan handicraft, specifically a woven basket. It is an important cultural symbol in Rwanda and holds both historical and symbolic significance. The Agaseke baskets are typically made by Rwandan women using sisal fibers, which are dyed in various colors.💥Historically, Agaseke baskets were used for storing and transporting goods, such as food and clothing. They played a vital role in Rwandan households and were also used in ceremonial contexts, such as weddings and other celebrations. Agaseke baskets were often given as gifts or used as decorative items in homes.💕Symbolically, Agaseke represents peace, unity, and reconciliation in Rwandan culture. After the Rwandan genocide in 1994, in which an estimated 800,000 people were killed, Agaseke baskets became associated with the country's healing and recovery process. The weaving of the baskets became a symbol of hope and unity as women came together to rebuild their lives and communities.💚Agaseke baskets are known for their unique shape and intricate designs. The weaving technique used to create these baskets requires skill and precision. The patterns and colors used in the baskets often carry symbolic meanings, reflecting different aspects of Rwandan culture and identity.🧡Today, Agaseke baskets are not only cherished within Rwanda but have also gained international recognition for their cultural and artistic value. They are popular souvenirs for tourists visiting Rwanda and are often used as decorative pieces or functional storage items in homes around the world....................

Wow was it was moving to learn about all the reconciliation that has taken place in Rwanda since the tragic 1994 genocide. 🇷🇼So much forgiveness & compassion has helped heal these communities torn apart by hate & violence. Such important work...and such loving people. I truly wish we could import these lessons to the United States to help us bridge our current divide of fear, for we have a lot to learn.✌️🕊💕 . . . #rwanda #rwandaart #art #healing #compassion #rwandagenocide #communitybuilding #lovethyneighbor #forgivenessheals #loveoverfear #rabagirandaministries #breakingcycles #weareone (at Kigali, Rwanda) https://www.instagram.com/p/B036xOXF2B9/?igshid=1f1m5de76l99e

And in that beautiful garden, I had a snack while I waited to meet with someone: a delectable smoked salmon baguette sandwich.
