Legendary Playwright Charlie Haffner Engages Students on the Historical Consciousness of Drama in Civic Education.

Our Faculty of Communication, Media, and Broadcasting recently had the privilege of hosting a guest lecture by Charlie Haffner — renowned playwright, oral historian, cultural advocate, and founder of the Freetown Players.

Haffner used his four decades of global experience to illustrate that history is a living bridge, connecting our individual identities to a collective national sense of belonging. He urged students to move beyond memorizing facts, using history instead as a tool for critical thinking and independent inquiry to better understand the world around them.

The heart of the discussion focused on the vital link between historical awareness and civic responsibility. Haffner challenged the audience to reflect on their commitment to democratic life, questioning if we truly understand the weight of our national symbols like the anthem and the pledge. He emphasized that "embedded patriotism" and empathy are not just feelings, but essential skills for a developing nation. By activating a genuine love for our country through the study of our ancestors and historical figures, he argued that citizens become more engaged in vital social mandates, such as voter registration and system reform.

To close the session, Haffner showcased how drama serves as a powerful engine for social change, citing his thirty-year project, ATUNDA AYENDA. Through the blending of music, folklore, and satire, he demonstrated how complex socio-political issues can be simplified and communicated to the public to promote human rights and national pride. His final call to action was clear: civic education must become a core fundamental subject in our schools. The lecture ended with a vibrant Q&A and a heartfelt a ca****la performance, leaving our students inspired to not only study Sierra Leone’s history but to actively participate in its future.

Turning Your Phone into a Power Tool
"The world’s top influencers don’t have two heads," she noted. "They have willpower and consistency." She urged everyone to stop "meaningless scrolling" and start using their smartphones to document their craft. Whether you are coding a new app or designing a brand identity, your process is your content.

The 3-Step Content Formula
To win on social media, she recommends every post follows this structure:
The Hook: Grab attention immediately.
The Body: Deliver value and tell your story.
Call to Action: Tell your audience what to do next.

She also explained that building a brand is about Trust, Visibility, and Sales, It won’t always be easy, and your first posts might not go viral but resilience is the key. The future isn't for the quiet; it’s for those brave enough to be seen.

Mr. Kamara’s detailed responses provided a roadmap for those looking to excel in the telecommunications and networking sectors of Sierra Leone.
