VIDEO SHORTS NGÀY 13/6 Cuộc đảo chính quân sự làm chấn động thế giới ở Mali Ngày 18/8/2020, quân đội Mali phát động một cuộc binh biến tại một căn cứ quân sự lớn gần thủ đô Bamako. Những binh lính nổi dậy đã yêu cầu tiến hành cải cách chính trị, một cuộc chuyển giao quyền lực và tổ chức tổng tuyển cử. Hàng loạt quan chức cấp cao của chính quyền bị bắt giữ, trong đó có Tổng thống Ibrahim Boubacar Keita và Thủ tướng Boubou Cisse. Ngày 19/8, ông Keita tuyên bố từ chức, giải tán chính phủ và quốc hội. Những người lãnh đạo cuộc đảo chính thành lập Ủy ban Quốc gia Bảo vệ Nhân dân, đứng đầu là Đại tá Assimi Goita, đồng thời ra lệnh đóng cửa biên giới và giới nghiêm toàn quốc. Ngày 27/8, Tổng thống Keita được trả tự do. Sau nhiều cuộc đàm phán với giới lãnh đạo chính trị và đại diện xã hội dân sự, ngày 12/9, quân đội Mali đã thông qua “một luật cơ bản và lộ trình chuyển tiếp” tại quốc gia châu Phi này. Ngày 25/9, cựu Bộ trưởng Quốc phòng Ba Ndau nhậm chức Tổng thống Mali giai đoạn chuyển tiếp, trong khi Đại tá Assimi Goita tuyên thệ Phó Tổng thống. Cuộc đảo chính quân sự làm chấn động thế giới ở Sudan Quân đội Sudan hạ bệ và bắt giữ Tổng thống lâu năm Omar al-Bashir ngày 11/4/2019, đưa Hội đồng Quân đội Chuyển tiếp lên cầm quyền, nhiều tháng sau khi các cuộc biểu tình chống chính phủ làm rung chuyển đất nước. Tháng 5/2019, ông Bashir, người đã cầm quyền tại Sudan gần 30 năm, bị cáo buộc dính líu tới các vụ sát hại người biểu tình. Cựu lãnh đạo Sudan cũng bị tố gian lận tài chính và hiện đang phải thụ án tù 2 năm tại nhà tù Kober ở thủ đô Khartoum. Cuộc đảo chính quân sự làm chấn động thế giới ở Zimbabwe Ngày 15/11/2017, quân đội Zimbabwe đã ép Tổng thống Robert Mugabe, vị lãnh đạo có thời gian cầm quyền dài nhất ở châu Phi, phải từ chức sau thời gian quản thúc tại gia. Vụ chính biến này của quân đội Zimbabwe được coi là một nỗ lực nhằm ngăn chặn nguy cơ ông Mugabe “chuyển giao” cương vị Tổng thống cho vợ mình là bà Grace Mugabe. Sau đó, Phó Tổng thống Emerson Mnangagwa, người được quân đội và lực lượng an ninh ủng hộ, đã lên nắm quyền. Ông Robert Mugabe qua đời ngày 6/9/2019 tại một bệnh viện ở Singapore.

In 2018, the UN women organisation wrote a list of facts and figures about economic empowerment. In it they stated, "women's economic empowerment is central to realising women's rights and gender equality." Did you know "women constitute around half of the 258 million migrants who live and work outside their countries of birth? Migrant women and girls outnumber men and boys in all regions except Africa and Asia." That's also from the UN women facts list, and speaks directly to the need for economic literacy and licence to play a central role in ensuring equity for women and the success of the economies they work in. Grace Mugabe is doing something about that very issue, right here in Australia, on the ground. She brings her extensive experience in Accounting with her corporate background to deliver financial literacy to provide practical and comprehensive financial education that is affordable and accessible for women and disenfranchised communities. Today, we're talking about financial literacy. Not just for businesswomen, but for all women. How having it changes lives and communities and society.

“To imagine these women is to face their questions. They are difficult. They are painful. They are necessary. We cannot turn away even as we know in our hearts that we collectively fear facing these women because they will demand that their questions be answered. We know that their questions will release a torrent of granite boulders that will destroy the versions of us and the nation that we hold dear even when they harm us in ways untold. The force of their questions will surely crush the old certainties cast in Zimbabwe's great house of stone. And then, what will become of us? Who will we be?” - Panashe Chigumadzi Panashe Chigumadzi is a Zimbabwean born writer. She was raised in South Africa. Panashe is an award-winning author. Her debut novel Sweet Medicine, published by Blackbird Books in 2015, won the K Sello Duiker Memorial Literary Award. Her sophomore book, a long reflective essay, These Bones Will Rise Again recently won Best Author at the fifth Zimbabwe International Women's Award. These Bones Will Rise Again is a reflective long essay on the ‘coup that was not a coup' in Zimbabwe. This reflection is done through the telling of history through the eyes of various womxn in her own family and the history of Zimbabwe. She writes about the history of chimurenga and the role of womxn in the liberation project in Zimbabwe. In this episode, we sat down with the prodigious Panashe pondering on her latest offering. The conversation was filled with musings on the erasure of Black womxn in history. We spoke about Mbuya Nehanda and the meaning of the ‘Big C AND small c' chimurenga. The conversation led us to topics about the Big men in Zimbabwe, the role of music in Zimbabwe's liberation project. In many ways, the conversation was a journey in Panashe's own history. Throughout the conversation, we encountered various parts of Panashe – the granddaughter, the historian, the Zimbabwean, the born free, the outsider and the writer. We spend moments being ruminative about Robert Mugabe and Grace Mugabe as key figures in Zimbabwe. The conversation highlighted the various ways in which womxn and men are reported in history, through respectability politics and taking up of space. We spoke about the meaning of language in knowing and telling histories and other musings about spirituality, a theme prevalent in both Panashe's books. The conversation touched on a number of other important topics such as the future of Zimbabwe under the new leadership. We also asked Panashe about her favourite writers, and her prestigious PhD undertaking at Harvard University. Panashe's book is archiving Black womxn and their stories, it can be received as academic text about reimagining Black womxnhood and the telling of histories.

Regional branches of Zimbabwe's ruling Zanu-PF party have joined growing calls for President Robert Mugabe to resign. The move comes ahead of a planned protest march to be held in the capital Harare, fully supported by the country's military which staged a takeover on Wednesday. War veterans until recently loyal to the 93-year-old president and liberal groups have also urged him to quit. The army made its move after a power struggle over his successor. Mugabe sacked Vice-President Emmerson Mngagwa last week, apparently to pave the way for his wife Grace Mugabe to take over the presidency instead.

Mugabe has accused him of disloyalty and deceit. His former deputy has now reportedly left the country because of death threats. Mugabe accuses him of consulting Church prophets to find out when the 93-year-old president will die. And after expelling him from the party, Mugabe warned others could be next.
