Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Muriu is turning heads and bending reality. Her vibrant portraits blend women seamlessly into richly patterned fabrics, creating hypnotic optical illusions that celebrate African identity while questioning how we see beauty, culture and self-expression. Now, Muriu returns to Paris for her third solo exhibition, "Clouds Bring Blessings", at 193 Gallery. For the first time, she's created her own tie-dye fabrics, calling nature her "uninvited co-creator". In this edition of arts24, Muriu opens up about her journey from Kenya's first female commercial photographer to a global art sensation – and how fabric, light and heritage weave together in her striking visual universe.

"One notable exception, is that a lawyer enjoys less freedom than others to speak publicly about his or her own cases, but not when it involves solidarity marches and protests for his client, the conducts of lawyers and the limit of their professional duties is the kennel of the alarming accusation by the Presidency yesterday against the lawyer of Mr Nnamdi Kanu and his subsequent arrest by the police for his presence at a scene in Abuja, where protesters were marching peacefully demanding the release of Mr Kanu; the statement from the Presidency and the police action is obviously a culmination of undisguised hostility towards the lawyer for having the temerity to represent a person the government have since prosecuted and convicted in the court of public opinions, ordinarily, a lawyer's bail application for alleged crime of illegal protest, won't be refused, the refusal is concerning and turning a simple matter into a political case of vendetta and persecution", Bayo Onanuga;

Trois jours après les élections générales où la présidente Samia Suluhu Hassan est candidate sans réelle opposition, le pays a connu une nouvelle journée de heurts vendredi 31 octobre. Selon le parti de l'opposition Chadema, la répression de la contestation aurait fait 700 morts, des violences qui inquiètent la communauté internationale, mais réfutées par le gouvernement. Et ce matin, le Washington Post revient sur les difficultés rencontrées pour obtenir des informations de l'intérieur du pays. Interrogé par le journal, Tito Magoti, un avocat Tanzanien spécialisé dans les droits humains explique : « Nous ne pouvons pas encore vérifier le nombre exact de morts et de blessés, car la plupart des personnes sont admises dans les hôpitaux publics (...) mais les chiffres dont nous disposons jusqu'à présent sont alarmants. » Maria Sarungi, une militante tanzanienne des droits de l'Homme, elle aussi interrogée par le Washington Post, a transmis au journal américain une liste de plus de 100 personnes qui, selon elle, ont été enlevées, tuées ou ont disparu dans des circonstances mystérieuses depuis l'arrivée au pouvoir de la présidente Hassan. « Je continue de mettre cette liste à jour », précise-t-elle. À l'origine du mécontentement suscité par l'élection, The Washington Post souligne notamment « la multiplication des obstacles juridiques dressés contre les concurrents les plus crédibles de la présidente ». « Hassan a fait taire toutes les voix critiques », explique ainsi Tito Magoti – l'avocat spécialisé dans les droits de l'homme. « Maintenant, elle n'a plus personne avec qui négocier, car le peuple lui dit : "On ne peut pas nous tuer et nous diriger". » Au Kenya, pays voisin de la Tanzanie, la presse mentionne les tentatives d'un groupe de Kényans de franchir illégalement la frontière tanzanienne pour rejoindre les manifestations. The Daily Nation revient ainsi sur les propos du premier secrétaire du Cabinet du Kenya : « Les jeunes [de la génération Z] qui souhaitent participer aux manifestations en Tanzanie violent les lois tanzaniennes (...) Notre Déclaration des droits est très solide, mais ne présumez pas que tous les pays suivent la même voie » Le journal Kenyan analyse ce discours : « Ses remarques font suite à des informations selon lesquelles les policiers kenyans aux postes frontières de Namanga et de Sirare avaient du mal à dissuader les Kenyans d'entrer illégalement en Tanzanie » Aux Pays-Bas, le parti centriste D66 a presque triplé son nombre de sièges À la Une également ce matin : les Pays-Bas et la victoire de Rob Jetten. Ce jeune libéral de 38 ans « a fait trembler l'extrême droite et aspire à gouverner », titre le journal espagnol El Pais. « Après deux années de turbulences politiques, marquées par le départ du gouvernement d'extrême droite, les élections de mercredi aux Pays-Bas offrent l'opportunité d'un retour à la stabilité », peut-on lire. La presse européenne brosse le portrait du leader centriste du parti D66. Précédemment ministre du Climat et de l'Énergie de 2022 à 2024, « son ascension fulgurante n'a pas été sans susciter des critiques, notamment en raison de ses nominations précoces à des fonctions publiques. » Rob Jetten a par ailleurs admis s'intéresser à toutes les religions pour leur capacité à créer des liens entre les gens, souligne El Pais. Le politique, issu de la communauté LGBT+, a par ailleurs « reconnu que faire son coming out avait été difficile, en raison de la pression sociale, plutôt que de raisons religieuses ». « Mais que va-t-il se passer maintenant ? » C'est la question principale du quotidien suisse Le Temps qui répond qu'il faut s'attendre à « des mois de discussions pendant lesquels les chefs de parti vont tenter de former une coalition viable et de négocier un programme gouvernemental acceptable pour tous. » Aux Pays-Bas, le parti majoritaire prend l'initiative de former un gouvernement. Aucun parti n'ayant obtenu de majorité absolue, Jetten est en bonne voie pour former le prochain gouvernement et devenir le plus jeune Premier ministre du pays. Ce qui est sûr, souligne le Washington Post, c'est que « L'élection s'est en quelque sorte transformée en test de popularité pour l'extrême droite après près de deux ans au pouvoir. Wilders, l'une des figures populistes les plus emblématiques et les plus virulentes d'Europe, est désormais quasiment exclu du gouvernement. »

The roof drums like a metronome while we sort the chaos of a wet northern camp into something that works. We're counting paper plates, flipping pots to outsmart mice, and finding out the hundred-pound propane tank still has life—thanks to a quick hot-water trick on the steel. Five days of rain can't stall a Chaga season, so we get practical: clean the carbon off a fouled plug, lean out a smoky two-stroke, and hunt down missing couplers for the old Gifford hand pump. When the seals slip, we switch tactics and haul lake water in pails, forty steps up and forty down.The sauna becomes our reset button. We strip barcoded stickers from new pipe, seat a fresh damper, and build heat with cedar kindling, pine, then hardwood until the rocks sing. At 175 degrees we wash with a mug, breathe deep, and sleep like we earned it. Along the way we share the small bush hacks that keep a camp alive: a coffee-can bread toaster, a torch to convince a stubborn furnace valve, perked coffee with a hint of Kenyan instant and a scoop of Chaga, and breakfast leveled up by homemade pickled jalapeños. Even the boots get a second life—cut into dry camp slippers that laugh at soaked leaves.Nature edits our plans with a wink. A perfect idea for wild hazelnut Chaga tea disappears when a black bear stands tall and cleans the bushes bare. We take the hint, shoulder gravel to mend the road, and lean on Starlink for a brief lifeline to forecasts and family. Between stories of decades on this land and fresh testimonials about Chaga's impact on blood pressure, clarity, and resilience, a theme sticks: simple systems, steady hands, and respect for the bush go farther than fancy gear.If you love practical outdoor knowledge, camp-tested fixes, and the calm that comes from real work under wet skies, press play and join us under the canopy. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a breath of pine and woodsmoke, and leave a quick review to help others find their way here.

Half of working dads feel nervous asking for time off to care for their children, more than 20% have been asked ‘where's your wife/partner?' when requesting flexibility and 44% say employers treat mothers more favourably in terms of flexible working. These are the findings of a new study ‘Barriers to Equal Parenting' by the charity Working Families. Nuala McGovern is joined by Elliott Rae founder of Parenting Out Loud and Penny East, chief executive of the Fawcett Society.In 2012, Agnes Wanjiru, a 21-year-old Kenyan woman and mother, was found dead in a septic tank near a British army base in central Kenya. More than a decade later, no one has been charged with her killing. Last month, a Kenyan High Court issued an arrest warrant for a British national suspected of her murder. We hear from Agnes' niece, Esther who is here in London today meeting with the Ministry of Defence calling for answers and for someone to be held responsible. Today would have been Baroness Margaret Thatcher's 100th birthday. Britain's Prime Minister for almost 12 years, she was the first woman ever to hold that position. Adored and revered by many, grudgingly respected by others, reviled by some on the left & criticised by feminists for doing little for women, can her legacy be clearly defined? To discuss Nuala is joined by Baroness Gillian Shephard who served in the ‘Iron Lady's' first government and Sarah Childs, Professor of Gender and Politics at the University of Edinburgh.Over the weekend, we heard that the Oscar-winning actress Diane Keaton died at the age of 79. Bette Midler called her "brilliant, beautiful, extraordinary", Goldie Hawn said "You never liked praise, so humble, but now you can't tell me to ‘shut up' honey. There was, and will be, no one like you.” They were two of her co-stars in the huge 1996 film the First Wives Club.... but Diane Keaton made her name decades before in American film classics such as Annie Hall, The Godfather, Reds. Victoria Moss, freelance fashion and lifestyle journalist and Leila Latif, film critic, discuss her impact.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Kirsty Starkey

Every year, the second Tuesday in October is designated as Ada Lovelace Day as a tribute to its namesake, Ada Lovelace, the 19th century mathematician and pioneering computer programmer who collaborated with Charles Babbage on the design of his remarkable mechanical computer, the Analytical Machine. To celebrate Ada Lovelace Day 2025, Alice and Paola are dedicating this special episode of Design Emergency to celebrating her achievements and those of other remarkable women who have honoured Ada's legacy in different ways, making crucial contributions to the digital age. .Some of them have designed and delivered transformational advances in technology, such as Britain's ingenious female code-breakers at Bletchley Park during World War II, Ida Holz, the Uruguayan computer scientist and engineer who pioneered the internet in Latin America, and Stacy Horn, who designed one of the first online communities in ECHO..Others have developed inspiring ways of improving existing systems: both by alerting us to new possibilities, and by identifying or defusing unexpected dangers, as the Chinese-born, US-based computer scientist Fei-Fei Li has done, and the Kenyan tech designer and activist, Juliana Rotich. While Jay-Ann Lopez, founder of the global network of Black Girl Gamers and new media pioneer, Lynn Hershman Leeson, are at the forefront of challenging stereotypes and championing diversity, inclusivity and equity within tech design, thereby helping to make it fitter for purpose and to realise its true potential. .We hope you'll enjoy this episode. You can find images of the projects Alice and Paola describe on our Instagram @design.emergency. Please join us for future episodes of Design Emergency when we will hear from inspiring global design leaders who are in the forefront of forging positive change..Design Emergency is supported by a grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts Hosted on Acast.

In April 2023, Kenyan human rights defenders discovered a deadly cult in the Shakahola forest. They exhumed more than 400 bodies from mass graves. The pastor of the Good News International Ministries, Paul Mackenzie, had convinced his followers that by starving themselves to death, they would meet Jesus before the apocalypse struck the Earth. In Kenya, there is complete freedom of religion – anyone can preach as they wish. But in this case, the consequences were disastrous. A trial is currently taking place. FRANCE 24's Bastien Renouil reports.

DiscourseSupport the show, and get way more fascinating insight than the Bros deliver on the pod! Everything in Spotlight is discussed, dissected and debated on Discourse, and membership is judge a small monthly pledge awayShow notesIt's a Bro-Science discussion today, as listener David inspired debate with a post on his epic Zone 2 indoor ride, and got us thinking - how do we spot Bro Science? Is it all bad? What are the alarm bells that should make us cautious, and how can we learn from the experiences and anecdotes of other people while staying credible. That's our Center Stage topic (47:45).Before that, we whip around the world for a Discourse Digest (1:38) that looks at NCAA 'trafficking' in Kenyan athletes, a win-win, but also maybe a loss for some. We talk Caster Semenya's off-now-on case to fight for inclusion into women's sport, and explore why it's about male advantage, not natural advantage. We also visit rugby, where head impacts and concussions are the focus of a big new study, a new player load guideline, and a link with neurodegenerative diseases in the wake of sad news of Lewis Moody's MND diagnosis.In Ross Replies (1:05:45), Gareth asks about training when fatigued, inviting discussion about the body's physiological resource budget, and how we spend it on stress as opposed to recovery. Listener Lens (1:11:41) fields another listener question, this time from Gianni, about the importance, or necessity, of breakfast before training. And Finally (1:14:52), Tua Tagavailoa has been advised that to prevent concussions, he needs more carbs. It's an idea detached from both reality and theory, but we discuss how it might have come about, and how ideas without basis become entrenched by unquestioning media and public.LinkChris Chavez post about NCAA RecruitingDW article on Semenya's legal caseThe entertaining LetsRun article on Tokyo 2025The large NZ study on neurodegenerative disease in rugby playersWorld Rugby's Load GuidelinesFormer guest James Smoliga's article on Tua Tagavailoa's sugar-concussion prevention belief Hosted on Acast.

The People's Temple in Jonestown, Heaven's Gate, The Order of the Solar Temple. All cults that ended in tragic mass suicides. How could such lofty aspirations end so badly? For today's self-contained installment of The Roots of Conspirituality series, Julian explores the shadow side of the anxiety-relieving religious notion that death is just a doorway into a better place. How do charismatic prophets indoctrinate believers into ending their lives, and often the lives of their children, in the name of spirituality? Julian briefly examines each of these groups, along with Paul Nthenge Mackenzie's Good News International Ministry—450 of whose followers starved themselves to death in a Kenyan forest in 2023. Then he transitions into exploring philosophical, psychological, evolutionary, and neuroscience-based ways of understanding the elements that make these spiritualized perversions of our survival instincts possible.
