About the song
This song is published in Bum Rush the Page: A Def Poetry Jam and is also included on bgyrl4Life! - the bgyrl.com compilation. Peaked at #2 on mp3.com's Spoken Word Charts. Inspired by the story of South African children whose fathers are away for 10 months each year working in diamond mines, yet their fathers always return to them. In this country, fathers of all races and classes leave their children and never return. We are the ones living in Fatherless Townships. http://abiyah.unsignedhype.org
