Peace Akintade, who moved to Canada from Nigeria as a child and faced the enormous challenge of finding her own voice in a completely new environment. In this inspiring video, Peace shares how the Saskatoon Open Door Society provided her the keys to unlock her expression through the powerful medium of poetry.
Peace recounts her initial struggles with communication and how poetry became her refuge and strength. Today, not only has she refined the art of verse, but she also dedicates her life to helping other newcomers in Canada find their voices and share their unique stories.
