    An Anthology from Zimbabwe’s Biggest Ghetto Town

    Sprawling to the south east of the revered Harare…there is a place
    millions call home, Chitungwiza as in that olden track, “mushamukuru,
    wakaenda kupiko, Chitungwiza.” It is Zimbabwe’s biggest village, that
    became a town, that became a city, that became our own Soweto…
    Zimbabwe’s biggest suburb yet also Zimbabwe’s Hollywood. It has produced
    or groomed Zimbabwe’s creatives and creative industry from film, by the
    book, poets, musicians, entertainers, academia, media practitioners,

    Chitungwiza, Zimbabwe home, or have wrote home about this place, or have
