The Oromia Publishing, LLC, announces that the long awaited book entitled Goota Oromiyaa has been published and being distributed for marketing. This 436 pages book, the first of its kind, contains the detailed biographies of 22 Oromo heroes who devoted and sacrificed their lives in the struggle for the liberation of their people and the independence of Oromia. Most of us know our national heroes by their mere names. The book now pays tribute to and gives a formal historical perspective to the fallen and living Oromo heroes by elaborating in depth the birth places, lives and contributions (sacrifices) they have paid in the protracted Oromo national struggle against the Ethiopian colonial system and the government. 

Furthermore, readers will learn about the trials and tribulations these heroes faced by abandoning their families and going underground; they also learn about the deeds that these heroes accomplished in the bushes of Oromia or in urban areas and the unflinching messages they left for the current Oromo people and posterity.

 Most Oromo people know their national heroes from distance and by words of mouth rather than from a written chapter in history of Oromia. This book gives the Oromo people the opportunity to know and actually feel the pains of our freedom loving heroes, the ups and downs of the Oromo struggle, the sacrifices paid and being paid while laying bare the malicious propaganda by the internal and external enemies of the Oromo struggle. Goota Oromiyaa is the first of its kind in presenting the detailed biographies 22 Oromo national heroes whose historical significance was not properly recorded for reference and would open a new paradigm to the study of Oromo history.

The Oromia Publishing, LLC, announces the publication of a new book titled Daaniyaa (in Oromo language). Although this book deals with Oromo culture and identity, it focuses on the original Oromo religion known as Waaqeffannaa. The book delivers a profound message on this religion.

Daaniyaa provides penetrating and well-rounded answers on the following questions: What is the impact of Waaqeffannaa on Oromo culture and identity? What are the essence and features of Waaqeffanaa? Who is Waaqeffata or Waaqeffatu? How does one become Waaqeffata/waaqeffatu? Above all, the book provides comprehensive explanations on the original Oromo religion and related issues.

This significant book explains how God’s law (seeri Waaqa) was given to Oromo society, and how Oromos have been worshipping their Creator. It also discusses the principles of Waaqeffannaa by focusing on the relationship between God and Oromo society. Daaniyaa also explains why Waaqeffannaa has been suppressed by different political and religious forces, and tells what should be done to release it from the yoke of repression in order to help it blossom. 

For those Oromos and others who are interested in studying and understanding the essence of authentic Oromo culture, identity, and religion, Daaniyaa serves as a main source of information and knowledge. Hence, the Oromia Publishing, LLC, invites all those who are interested in Oromo cultural issues in general and the original Oromo religion in particular to purchase and read this fascinating book.
