“Today, we celebrate freedom. But my question to all of us is — freedom for what? Is it just the right to vote? Is it the right to walk freely without fear? No. Freedom must mean the right to opportunity — the right to learn, to build, to own, to lead. I have walked in the streets where young people with brilliant minds are held back by broken systems. I have seen young women locked out of opportunity simply because of where they were born. That is not freedom. That is delayed justice. At SayPro, our work is to ensure that freedom has meaning — that it opens doors. Not just political doors, but educational ones, entrepreneurial ones, digital ones. Because when freedom touches opportunity, transformation becomes inevitable.”
