Voices from Within: Photographs of African Children - Hardcover
A book of 145 duotone photographs of children from 12 different countries in Africa, south of the Sahara. It celebrates the lives of ordinary children and their every day life: how they are nurtured and reared, the games they play, their adolescence and growing up years, their education and their role within their families and immediate environment.

From the Publisher:
An authoritative and majestic presentation .... A brilliant orchestra of gumption in imagery and mastery of the photographic arts. There has been no greater exhibition of the quintessence of the human spirit than one sees in these images. The ancestors must be proud, and generations to come will be glad for Fayemi's "Voices From Within"
From the Author:
The preponderance of the image of the African child in Western press is negative - malnourished, starving, orphaned and wretched. As a Nigerian who spent his formative years in Africa and as a veteran traveler in and documentary photographer of black Africa, I know and have studied the realities of African children. Voices From Within portrays the true picture of contemporary African child as it occurs in most of the continent most of the time.
