The Knights of the Streets of Dakar

 🐴 The Knights of the Streets of Dakar: 

The Wheel Drive, The Forgotten Heroes🌟

Today, let's shine the spotlight on the tireless workers who bring the streets of Dakar alive with dignity and courage: the wheel drive. 🙌🏽

Many see this profession as a last resort, but in reality, being a charity worker is so much more than just a job. It's a way to earn an honest living, provide essential services to the community, and feed your family with pride. 👨🏾 

🌾 There is no such thing as “small job”, men who refuse to stay in the face of adversity. 

These young people who choose the path of charity have the courage to defy prejudices, own their destiny and turn this profession into a real force. With a horse and cart, they carry our hopes, dreams, and the promise of a better future. 

So, let's salute these discreet heroes who, despite everything, continue to move forward with determination and bravery. 

🚀 Respect to our chariot drivers, the real engines of our streets! 

💪🏾💙 — Lives in Silence🕊️ Every day, on the streets of Dakar, young people struggle for survival by becoming charity workers. This profession, often despised, is however an honest way to earn a living. 

Behind every cart, there's a broken dream, an unfulfilled promise, and a fragile hope for better days. 🙏🏾 

They are the invisible ones, but without them, a lot of things would stop. Let's think of those brave people who, despite the difficulties, refuse to give up. 🌧️.

In Senegal, horse-drawn carts are more than just a mode of transportation—they represent a connection to the past, an economic lifeline for many, and a practical solution for the present. Their continued use underscores the adaptability of traditional practices in a rapidly changing world.

Leur utilisation continue souligne l'adaptabilité des pratiques traditionnelles dans un monde en pleine évolution.
