Today, we are joined by Muhidin Libah, Executive Director and co-founder of the Somali Bantu Community Association of Maine. Born in Somalia and raised in refugee camps in Kenya before resettling in the United States, Libah has dedicated his life to helping Somali Bantu families rebuild and thrive in Maine.

The Somali Bantu community traces its roots to farming villages in southern Somalia. After years of conflict, displacement, and life in refugee camps, many families found a new home in Maine, where they have worked to preserve their culture, strengthen their communities, and reconnect with their agricultural heritage.

One of the most visible examples of that effort is Liberation Farms, a 103-acre community farm in Wales, Maine, where hundreds of Somali Bantu families grow food, share knowledge, and pass their traditions on to the next generation.

In this conversation, Muhidin Libah reflects on the Somali Bantu journey from displacement to belonging, the role of farming in restoring identity and dignity, and his vision for the future of his community.

This is Amjambo Time, a production of Amjambo Africa, prepared and hosted by Eloge Willy Kaneza.
