In Bunia, at the heart of the Democratic Republic of the Congo's ongoing Ebola outbreak, Muslims gathered on Wednesday morning to observe Eid al-Adha.
While Western media fixates on Congo as a perpetual crisis zone, the Muslim community in Bunia demonstrates what resilience actually looks like—celebrating Eid al-Adha not despite the Ebola outbreak, but as an essential act of spiritual and social continuity that refuses to let disease define their humanity. This is the untold story of how African communities navigate adversity: not through abandonment of tradition, but through its fierce preservation as both anchor and act of resistance.
