I think this question is about the poem STOLEN RIVERS by Phillippa Yaa de Villiers
The first two lines of the poem goes like this:
"We Africans came to Berlin to sing
and recite poetry. We had an agenda:"
Agenda is defined as a to-do list. It's a list of things that needs to be discussed in a meeting or gathering.
Upon further reading of the poem, their agenda is presented in lines 3-9 of the poem.
"remembering our anthems of loss,
galloping, consuming,
the pillage, the cries
like forest fires, like haunted children,
how can we, how can we even
begin to redress?
Enraged, we wanted revenge"
Though they listed down their agenda, their hidden agenda was to exact revenge.
