In the colonial era, women oppression, gender discrimination, inequality and enslavement were solidified across the continent. ‘‘The song of the women of my land’’ is the song of a deep lamentation over the fate that has befallen women in Sierra Leone. It explores the image of a traditional lamentation. Women were put into cruelties and engage in agricultural activities and sing about the sufferings and agonies they pass through. Rural women are involved in managing forestry resources. At the same time, they are denied education and employment.
