Segun Lawson, President and CEO of Thor Explorations (TSX.V: THX) (AIM: THX) (OTC: THXPF), joins us for a review of Q1 2025 operations and financials from its Segilola Gold mine, located in Nigeria, and for the Company's ongoing exploration and development programs in Nigeria, Senegal and Cote D'Ivoire.    Q1 2025 Financial Highlights   22,750 ounces ("oz") of gold sold (Q1 2024: 17,420 oz) with an average gold price of US$2,720 per oz (Q1 2024: US$2,033). Cash operating cost of US$711 per oz sold (Q1 2024: US$418) and all-in sustaining cost ("AISC") of US$950 per oz sold (Q1 2024: US$632). Revenue of US$64.0 million (Q1 2024: US$33.3 million). EBITDA of US$43.6 million (Q1 2024: US$23.2 million). A quarterly record Net Income of US$34.4 million (Q1 2024: US$12.4 million). Net Cash of US$24.7 million (Q1 2024: Net debt of US$14.3 million). Maiden quarterly dividend of C$0.0125 per share per quarter (C$0.05 per year)   This strong financial balance sheet with no debt is allowing the Company to increase exploration initiatives at all projects.   In Nigeria, there is ongoing near-mine exploration focused on testing depth extensions of the Segilola deposit, with a diamond drilling program targeting the continuity of high-grade shoots down-plunge to the south. Early results confirm mineralization below the current final pit design. Drilling returned encouraging high-grade intercepts both north and south of the existing resource, indicating the potential for extensions and new target areas beyond the current limits of the Segilola resource. Regional exploration efforts concentrated on geochemical sampling targeting structurally complex zones within the Ilesha Schist Belt identified through geological modelling as prospective for gold mineralization.   In Senegal, at the Douta Gold Project, workstreams in support of a Preliminary Feasibility Study ("PFS") were advanced during 2024 on the metallurgical test work, process flow sheets and resource update.  Exploration work focused on  at depth between the main Makosa resource base along the 6km strike from Makosa Tail to the northern extent of the deposit, with RC drilling targeting increased oxide resource definition at the parallel Makosa East Prospect. The discovery of the Baraka 3 Prospect in Douta West has had positive implications to the Douta PFS, but has delayed the delivery of this study as a result. This 3km of strike length of very wide near-surface oxide gold mineralization could be very import to the early economics in a development scenario of this Project, and thus the Baraka 3 drilling has been accelerated.   Wrapping up we discuss the exploration prospectivity over the 3 different exploration projects in Côte d'Ivoire: The Guitry Gold Project and two additional option agreements to acquire an 80% interest in the early-stage Boundiali Exploration permit and the Marahui Exploration permit. At these project the company is assessing target-generative geochemical surveys and sampling and mapping, with drilling planned for after rainy season in Q3 2025.     If you have any questions for Segun regarding Thor Explorations, then please email them into us at Fleck@kereport.com or at Shad@kereport.com.   *In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Thor Explorations at the time of this interview.   Click here to follow the latest news from Thor Explorations

“5,000 miles of hell.”    “So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you.”  -  Romans 8:8-9 (NKJV)

“At home, mindfulness is an app, a tool to fight the noise. In the wild, peace and calm rule by default … Out in the open, my mind is released from the noise. It sways with the trees and flows with the rivers. It blows over snow tipped mountaintops and down into wide sunlit valleys expanding to fill its surroundings. The vistas are bigger, but there is less to know.” -        Jude Kriwald   Today, we are taking a journey to one of the most remote and underexplored places on the African continent. The Gola Rainforest straddles the border of Liberia and Sierra Leone, and is home to the Kissi, Mende and Gola tribes. To walk through it would be difficult. To try and a ride a bike, would be insane. Nonetheless that is exactly what adventurer Jude Kriwald decided to do.   At 20 years old Jude knew exactly what he wanted to do. He'd just returned from a 13-month trip cycling from England to India, and he wanted more. He wanted to be an adventurer and dedicate his life to pure joy of exploring the world. But slowly, inevitably, that dream faded as life, and career, took over. Ten years passed. His mental health deteriorated. He would lie awake at night wondering how he let is all slip away.  Until one day, he'd had enough. He flew to Senegal, got on his bike with the plan to spend three-months riding from there to Liberia. But things did not go to plan.    “Alone and in the wild, I am beautifully weird and joyously free. It's not that my rituals and quirks fit in better, they simply exist, unobserved. The road cares not and the sun shines equally on all. In nature I find reprieve. Alone I find myself.”   FIND OUT MORE Jude made a short documentary film about this journey, called Alone Across Gola.

The first “post-COVID” US presidential election is upon us. As most of the people in the world have endured national elections, it is the US's turn in a year that has seen or will see the majority of the world's people experience national elections, from Senegal to Sri Lanka, from Mexico to Mozambique, from India to the European Union. But the pandemic has receded and life cycles beset with perpetual spectacle are back in full effect. The distractions and serial stimuli are stronger than ever in a social structure that grows bloodier with each passing day. Can we pause long enough to ask ourselves how we renew our focus to act as swiftly as we did during the pandemic to intervene in the affairs of society? In Session 34 of In Class, in the wake of the existential crisis triggered by the 2020 US election season, we examined “The Power of the Pause.” The “Summer of The Reckoning” was behind us, as was the 2020 elections, the political culmination of a once-in-a-lifetime convergence of disease, state violence and electoral politics. Now, poised on the brink of a match between the bloody politics of white nationalism and the pragmatic politics of blunting state violence, we must ask ourselves amid the nonstop noise: “can we recapture our imaginations from the frenetic pace of distraction and consumption and take decisive action?”JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week, I took Amy Sedaris & SJP to my new apartment and discovered a minor (major?) flaw with my outdoor shower. Speaking of SJ, we finally got the answer to what her favorite soup is. I went to Barry Diller's star studded book party and had a realization on the show that I'm a Garbage Gobbler (trademark pending).Then, we broadcasted live from Universal Studios in Orlando for the opening of Epic Universe, which was…EPIC. I did get emotional recalling the story when I found out my longtime driver is moving back to Senegal. Plus, we opened up some listener mail, which made me feel SEEN (pun intended)!For more interviews and behind-the-scenes tea, tune in to Andy Cohen Live weekdays on Radio Andy by subscribing to SiriusXM.

O jurista, advogado e activista político guineense Sana Canté publicou recentemente um livro intitulado "Quando desistir não é uma opção", um testemunho pessoal em que relata a sua luta contra o actual poder na Guiné-Bissau e o violento sequestro que sofreu em Março de 2022 em Bissau, devido ao seu activismo político. Recebemo-lo nos estúdios da RFI. O livro intitulado "Quando desistir não é uma opção", com prefácio do jurista Fodé Mané, relata a forma como Sana Canté sobreviveu a um sequestro particularmente violento, filmado pelos agressores e cujo vídeo circulou nas redes sociais na altura do acontecimento, em 2022. Três anos depois, ainda em recuperação física e moral, Sana Canté conta-nos, nos estúdios da RFI, o olhar que tem de uma luta política sem compromissos. RFI: O livro inicia com a descrição do seu rapto. É espancado e abandonado quase morto, antes de ser recuperado por desconhecidos. O texto combina narrativa pessoal e reflexão política. Trata-se também de um apelo à acção?Sana Canté: Exactamente. Para quem já leu, quem acompanhou o nosso percurso e o que nos aconteceu depois de termos sido raptados e sujeitos à aberração da tentativa de assassinato por parte do actual presidente  -que para mim não é presidente nem nunca foi, pode perceber quanto nos custou relatar todo o episódio.Portanto, se a nós nos custou passar por esta situação e ter que relatar tudo de novo para partilhar esta experiência, temos que convocar as forças vivas da nação, o povo guineense, a não se resignar e a manter-se activo na luta de resgate ao nosso Estado.RFI: Conta que o rapto aconteceu à saída do aeroporto em Bissau. Foi em 2022, depois de ter estado dois anos fora do país. O Sana encontra-se com amigos e até mesmo com o sua segurança pessoal e acaba de chegar de Lisboa. Quando é que se apercebe que algo está a correr mal?Sana Canté: Logo quando desci do avião, percebi que estava a ser observado por alguém no primeiro piso do aeroporto. Estranhamente, numa altura em que praticamente todos queriam se aproximar de mim e fazer selfies, cumprimentar, encorajar, este alguém fixava-me com uma certa expressão de rancor.Tentei perceber, mas não conseguia estar atento a tudo, devido à pressão da solidariedade que muitas queriam expressar e me vinham cumprimentar. De resto foi acontecendo tudo muito rápido e infelizmente conseguiram me sujeitar ao bárbaro, à tortura e pronto. Foi o que aconteceu. Não foi por falta de advertência[Umaro] Sissoco Embaló quando foi declarado vencedor das eleições presidenciais, em 2020, mandou alguém pessoalmente para me dar o recado de que era capaz de perdoar a todos, menos a mim.RFI: Que outros dados tem que comprovam que o seu sequestro obedeceu a ordens superiores vindas directamente, como escreve no seu livro, de Embaló?Sana Canté: Antes de mais há este recado directo do próprio Sissoco, que foi, de certa forma, o que me impediu de voltar ao país. Fiquei fora dois anos a tentar me resguardar. Depois, quando já ia no carro, sequestrado, ouvi Sissoco do outro lado da linha telefónica com um dos agentes, sentado no banco da frente, do lado do passageiro. Eu relato essa passagem no livro. Ouvi o próprio Sissoco Embaló dar instruções claras, dizer que já sabiam o que tinham que fazer comigo e que não podiam de todo falhar. Mas, felizmente para mim, falharam. E aqui estou hoje.RFI: O Sana diz que foi uma tentativa de assassínio, mas quando tudo isto acontece, em 2022, não vivia na Guiné-Bissau, não era candidato em nenhuma eleição, de certa forma, não representava um perigo iminente para o poder na Guiné-Bissau. Porque razão foi vítima de uma tentativa de assassínio, como alega?Sana Canté: Não era candidato, mas representava um perigo devido a todas as minhas acções contra o regime que se instalou no país, e que continua até agora com muito medo do poder da manifestação popular. Eu liderava na altura o maior movimento da sociedade civil, o MCCI (Movimento dos Cidadãos Conscientes e Inconformados). O MCCI conseguiu mobilizar a maior manifestação contra este regime, representado agora na figura do Sissoco, mas que na altura estava a ser representado pelo JOMAV (José Mário Vaz). Na altura, Sissoco era Primeiro-ministro e não nos conseguiu demover. Tentou-nos subornar de todas as formas. Não conseguiu. Tivemos, na altura, uma audiência no gabinete do Primeiro-ministro, em que ele me ofereceu somas avultadas em dinheiro que eu recusei.Disse-me que seria capaz de me mandar de férias para qualquer país do mundo que eu quisesse. Mas estou aqui em Paris, sem qualquer subordinação. E portanto, esta capacidade de mobilização, a nossa forma de abordar a crise, de opinar sobre o que tem feito para destruir o nosso país e que sempre incomodou. Por isso fui sempre visado e não pouparam esforços para me atingir.RFI: Houve na altura alguma reacção política ao seu sequestro?Sana Canté: Sim, teve o envolvimento da Liga Guineense dos Direitos Humanos, da Diocese, das Nações Unidas.RFI: E do Governo da altura?Sana Canté: Não, não. O Governo, pelo contrário, esteve engajado em boicotar a emissão do meu passaporte. No sequestro retiraram-me todas as documentações. Depois de terem descoberto que afinal eu não tinha morrido, que precisava de ser evacuado com muita urgência para Portugal, resolveram boicotar a emissão do meu novo passaporte.RFI: Relata no livro os obstáculos administrativos ao fornecimento do seu passaporte, e conta que evocou a possibilidade de utilizar o passaporte do seu irmão gémeo para poder sair do país, tendo em conta as dificuldades. Sana Canté: Foi uma das opções, na altura. Dada a urgência, avaliámos a possibilidade de fazer uma fuga através da via terrestre. mas não foi possível devido ao meu estado de saúde. Então acabámos por nos manter intransigentes na emissão do passaporte e graças ao envolvimento do Departamento dos Direitos Humanos das Nações Unidas é que foi possível, finalmente, obter o documento.RFI: Conta que o chefe de Estado "tentou comprar a sua consciência por uma avultada soma em dinheiro". Qual era a intenção?Sana Canté: A intenção era colaborar com ele [Umaro Sissoco Embaló]. A proposta era clara, tratava-se de permitir a visita do então presidente do Senegal, Macky Sall, com quem Sissoco queria rubricar um acordo de exploração do nosso petróleo, uma coisa totalmente ilegal. Nós não aceitámos. E Sissoco estava disposto, naquele preciso momento, a entregar-me qualquer montante que eu pedisse, sem necessidade de ir ao banco.RFI: De que tipo de colaboração se tratava em troca?Sana Canté: Colaboração com o seu regime. Comigo não conseguiu, mas infelizmente conseguiu com vários dos meus colegas que eu aqui dispenso mencionar os nomes para não dar importância a este grupo de - infelizmente, traidores da causa que temos vindo a ter que defender.Mas entretanto, este episódio foi em 2017, na altura em que Sissoco era Primeiro-ministro. A nossa perseguição já vinha desde 2016 com JOMAV. Com a chegada de Sissoco como Primeiro-ministro, intensificou-se. Depois, quando assumiu a Presidência da República, teve cheque em branco para fazer o que quisesse. Não fui a primeira vítima nem a última.RFI: Continua a receber ameaças, ainda hoje? Sana Canté: Sim, sim. Continuam a enviar-me recados através dos tradicionais canais. Um dos recados que recebi, e aqui agora revelo publicamente pela primeira vez, foi através do seu actual ministro dos Negócios Estrangeiros.Foi quando o PAIGC ganhou as eleições legislativas em 2023, o governo do PAIGC queria colaborar comigo. E Sissoco fez tábua rasa a essa possibilidade. Foi através de Carlos Pinto Pereira, que era na altura meu grande amigo, alguém que eu apreciava muito, sobretudo na advocacia, mas infelizmente fica aqui a minha decepção registada. Foi através dele que me passou o recado. RFI: Qual era o recado? Sana Canté: Que ainda ia me conseguir pegar... A intenção era clara e continua a ser essa a sua intenção, me matar. Eu não tenho dúvida disso.RFI: Neste contexto, ir a Bissau é viável? Sana Canté: Se dependesse só de mim, já estaria lá. Não temo pela minha vida. A causa é que me importa mais. De momento ainda estou a recuperar deste sequestro. Essa é a única razão. Senão já estaria lá. Mas que Sissoco fique tranquilo que a causa não é Sana Canté. Mesmo que morra, isto já ganhou um ritmo que não há como voltar atrás.RFI: Há um detalhe intrigante no seu livro é que todos os nomes próprios têm maiúscula, menos o nome de Umaro Sissoco Embaló e dos seus próximos e aliados.Sana Canté: Ainda bem que notou este detalhe. Foi propositado. Não merecem maiúsculas. Temos que fazer essa menção devidamente quando se trata de humanos, de pessoas com dignidade. Mas quando falta este carácter... O mínimo que eu podia fazer em respeito aos meus leitores era este truque académico. RFI: Estudou na Faculdade de Direito de Bissau, foi presidente do Movimento de Cidadãos Conscientes e Inconformados (MCCI). Na altura, José Mário Vaz era Presidente, Botche Candé era e ainda é ministro do Interior. Já naquela altura havia relatos de espancamentos. As manifestações eram proíbidas, eram dispersadas pela polícia a gás lacrimogéneo, granadas e bastonadas. O que é que mudou e qual é a diferença com o actual poder de Umaro Sissoco Embaló?Sana Canté: Não, nada mudou. Eu continuo a insistir de que se trata do mesmo regime. O regime que sequestrou o país em 2015 é o mesmo regime que se mantém até agora. Apenas mudou a figura. JOMAV foi substituído por Sissoco.Mas o modus operandi continua igual. Nós fomos vítimas de tentativas de sequestro. As técnicas de segurança que utilizamos para escapar dessas tentativas de sequestro, e que relatei no livro, foram instruções dadas por uma célula que as Nações Unidas tinha na Guiné-Bissau.Portanto, o regime apenas substituíu um dos seus elementos. Estão agora a tentar substituir o Sissoco, e ele está a tentar resistir a essa substituição, pelo Nuno Gomes Nabiam, que aqui participou na assinatura do Acordo de Paris, ou pelo Braima Camará ou por um dos seus elementos. Temos a obrigação de continuar a chamar a atenção da opinião pública para todas estas manobras.RFI: No seu livro tecem ainda uma crítica social. Relata que, para além das perseguições políticas e da violência contra activistas políticos, quem sofre na realidade, é a maioria da população. Escreve que "o sistema educativo está completamente inerte. A pobreza é extrema. Morrem crianças nos hospitais por falta de médicos ou morrem em casa por falta de hospitais. Morrem mulheres grávidas por falta de oxigénio ou de ambulâncias. A média da esperança de vida é das mais baixas do mundo". Chega apenas aos 64 anos, de acordo com a ONU. Apesar de tudo, ainda há esperança?Sana Canté: É o que diz o livro "Quando desistir não é opção". Isto não é possível. As pessoas morrem de fome. Neste momento estamos a falar e há quem já morreu porque faltou dinheiro para comprar medicamento, ou porque na sua tabanca nem sequer tem hospital, quanto mais um médico. Precisamos de salvar o nosso país. Portanto, se do regime colonial conseguimos nos livrar... Obviamente que face a este grupinho de  -desculpem-me a expressão, de delinquentes, vamos nos bater para resgatar o nosso país.RFI: E no entanto, reconhece que "é compreensível a falta de esperança do povo que guarda na sua memória colectiva as consequências da luta armada, da guerra civil e dos frequentes golpes de Estado".Sana Canté: Exactamente. A independência trouxe muita esperança. Uma exagerada esperança que, de certa forma, não andou no mesmo ritmo que a realidade, não é? E isto acabou por se frustrar com o golpe de Estado de 1980. Iamos correr com os "tugas", agora com o que é que ficamos?Claro que muita coisa melhorou. Claro que temos agora médicos que com a colonização não tínhamos. Mas entretanto, essa esperança não se concretizou. Faltou aqui uma oportunidade que nós nunca tivemos. A oportunidade de uma liderança estável, capaz de proporcionar o mínimo necessário para o nosso povo. Que o povo não esteja a bater-se tanto para conseguir alguma coisa para comer. Que não tenha dificuldade de recorrer ao hospital quando precisa, ou à escola. Ou seja, o nosso país não está neste mundo.E tudo isto leva as pessoas a não acreditar em ninguém. Qualificam os políticos como farinha do mesmo saco. Essa falta de esperança faz com que o povo não esteja fortemente determinado em acabar com este regime. Essa falta de esperança está a cansar também.Se o povo tivesse experimentado boa vida, desenvolvimento, o mínimo necessário, ninguém estaria em condição de enganar a população, como agora fazem.Sabe o que é que o Sissoco disse durante a sua campanha? Que ia levar um cheque um bilhão e meio de dólares, em quatro aviões. E a maioria dos seus eleitores acreditou.RFI: Que olhar tem sobre a actual oposição política guineense?Sana Canté: De momento, não temos oposição. O que temos é um país cujas instituições democráticas, todas elas, foram sequestradas. A oposição só existe num Estado de direito democrático. Neste momento, perante a realidade do meu país,tenho dificuldades técnicas de qualificar quem é oposição perante quem. RFI: Olhando para as eleições gerais, fixadas por Umaro Sissoco Embaló para Novembro, o que considera que a oposição deveria fazer? Boicotar as eleições? Participar?Sana Canté: Várias possibilidades. Na minha opinião, boicote não resultaria em nada. O que eu acho que a oposição deveria fazer é aplicar o princípio da igualdade de armas. Se Sissoco usa a violência, então usem a violência. O uso da violência é um direito institucionalizado democraticamente. Mas quando é usado fora das regras constitucionais, estás a fazer uma vindita privada, estás a seguir interesses anticonstitucionais. E a reposição da ordem constitucional, quando é urgente, legítima também a oposição a fazer uso desse princípio da igualdade das armas. Se não consegue, tudo bem.Mas a oposição reuniu-se aqui em Paris e assinou o Acordo de Paris, com participação do PAIGC, o meu partido. Acho que faltou muita coisa nesse acordo. O quê? Primeiro, perante a realidade que se está a viver no país, tinham que apresentar um candidato comum logo na primeira volta. E não andar a equacionar a possibilidade de se candidatar individualmente para depois se juntarem na segunda volta... Tinham que definir um único candidato. Dava mais força.Segundo, reconhecem que o Sissoco é ex-Presidente da República. Tudo bem. Sendo ex-presidente, quem é o Presidente da República interino? É o presidente da Assembleia Nacional Popular. Tinham que declarar que reconhecem Domingos Simões Pereira, como Presidente da República da Guiné-Bissau. Faltou também este elemento no Acordo de Paris.Precisavam de ter muita coragem. O que me leva a acreditar que eles não querem o Sissoco mas também não querem o Domingos Simões Pereira, nem querem a verdade.O nosso problema é que culpamos Sissoco de tudo. Mas Sissoco não é detentor da força, do poder que existe na Guiné-Bissau. Nem o JOMAV era detentor desse poder.Na altura, já dizíamos Dissemos que a luta contra JOMAV tinha que ser contra o regime. E agora alguns combatentes, como gostamos de nos chamar, estão a traduzir o regime numa luta pessoal contra Sissoco.Mas se Sissoco for substituído por um dos seus agentes do regime, Nuno Gomes, Braima Camará ou Fernando Dias -que agora felizmente parece estar a seguir pelo caminho da democracia... Tudo isto não passa de estratégias políticas, não estamos propriamente a agir em defesa da ordem constitucional e da verdade.RFI: Fala no seu livro de responsabilidade geracional. O que diria hoje à juventude da Guiné-Bissau que poderá ter perdido a confiança na política?Sana Canté: Como diz o presidente brasileiro Lula, se perdeu a confiança na política, então faz política. Se acha que os políticos actuais não são adequados, então esse político poderás ser tu. Não nos podemos distrair com desânimos, com críticas desnecessárias. Temos que estar comprometidos com a solução dos problemas. A nossa geração, a juventude, sobretudo, não pode ser infiel à sua própria essência. A juventude nunca deve ter medo de enfrentar um problema, Nunca deve ter medo de usar todos os meios necessários para mudar o mal. A juventude tem que ter a coragem de expressar isto.  Ouça a versão curta da entrevista com Sana Canté:

Episode Summary:In this episode of Half Time Scholars, we sit down with Shruti Sheshadri, a doctoral candidate in International and Multicultural Education at the University of San Francisco, to discuss a critical yet often overlooked issue in global education: the persistent mismatch between early-grade language textbooks and the real learning needs of children in the Global South.Drawing from her research, Dismantling the Hierarchy of Skills: A Comparative Study of the Development of Language Textbooks in the Global South, Shruti explores how standardized textbook design fails to reflect contemporary pedagogy or meet the needs of diverse linguistic communities. Despite billions in investment and intensive planning, textbook development remains rigid, centralized, and out of sync with educational equity goals.We unpack the findings of her comparative case study across India, Senegal, Kenya, and Jordan, where she conducted interviews, textbook analyses, and document reviews to trace the institutional logics behind textbook development. Shruti reveals how language-in-education policies, community preferences, and institutional hierarchies shape the form and content of textbooks—and how these realities impact learning outcomes.This episode challenges listeners to think differently about educational materials in the early grades and invites educators, policymakers, and development practitioners to reimagine textbooks not as static tools, but as dynamic platforms capable of supporting inclusive and innovative literacy development.Key Themes:Why early-grade language textbooks are failing learners in the Global SouthThe institutional politics of textbook publishingThe hidden pedagogies embedded in textbook designComparative insights from India, Senegal, Kenya, and JordanThe transformative potential of generative AI and digital tools in reimagining textbooksAbout the Guest:Shruti Sheshadri is a researcher, editor, and consultant with deep expertise in global literacy and textbook publishing. She holds a master's degree in international education development from the University of Pennsylvania and serves as the Assistant Editor of the International Journal of Human Rights Education. She also sits on the Board of Directors of the Comparative and International Education Society (CIES) as a Student Representative. Since 2018, she has worked on education program design, monitoring, and evaluation and currently consults for the Global Partnership for Education.

Banks Cover Gold Shorts, But Silver Position Remains Elevated While we were awaiting resolution to the tariff policies earlier this year, the gold and silver short positions by the banks had grown dangerously large.

Radhika Das, IFN Journalist, interviews Dr Abdou DIAW, Coordonnateur National, PROMISE, on supporting Islamic microfinance in Senegal and partnering with organizations like the IsDB to help expand access to services in the nation

In our latest episode we speak with the author and academic Frank Gerits, whose most recent work explores the history of the intense ideological battle which took place in the 1950s and 1960s for African hearts and minds. His book, The Ideological Scramble for Africa, explores how this competition wasn't just between Cold War superpowers, but among African leaders themselves who were projecting competing visions of what African modernity should look like. In this conversation with Robert Amsterdam, Dr. Gerits gives an informed portrait of key figures such as Ghana's Kwame Nkrumah, whose revolutionary call for immediate continental unity challenged both colonial powers and fellow African leaders. While leaders like Senegal's Senghor favored maintaining ties with Europe and others promoted regional federations, Nkrumah demanded complete independence and a "Monroe Doctrine for Africa" that would keep the continent out of global power struggles entirely. Gerits discussess his views on the fascinating psychological dimension of decolonization, showing how Western powers promoted "modernization" programs designed to psychologically transform Africans, while leaders like Nkrumah and intellectuals like Frantz Fanon fought to reclaim African cultural identity. The louder Africans demanded independence, the more Western powers interpreted this as evidence they needed more assistance—a dynamic that continues today. Be sure to explore our library of past podcast episodes, which include more than a dozen recent books on Africa.

 We really enjoyed talking with Libby, Owen, and Eli of Dallas Ugly. From hearing their unique band name story, to how they became a band was really a good time. We discussed their newalbum “See Me Now” (Available NOW!), and how they each individually write a song and then come together to finalize it.    Nashville's Dallas Ugly are an indie rock band of truly trusted friends, a trio who have been singing each other's songs for over a decade. Three distinctive voices: guitarist OwenBurton observes humanity at a wry remove, chuckling, multi-instrumentalist Libby Weitnauer lifts personal experience up into catchy tunes, and bassist Eli Broxham gracefully snakes through the low end on his more melancholy contributions. Together they've forged an ironclad, sibling-like bond, daring each other to ever increasing heights. Their listeners - lucky - get theoverlap of their Venn diagram, the best of their crop, otherwise known as “See Me Now,” their sophomore album.   Though they first started playing each other's songs back in their Chicago undergrad days, Dallas Ugly officially formed in 2020 when Owen, Libby, and Eli took a chance on relocatingto Nashville. Owen had been living in Senegal serving in the Peace Corps, Libby had established herself as an in-demand musician in New York City, and Eli was playing on frequent bluegrass and country gigs in Illinois - reunited in the Music City, they got to work, shaping both Dallas Ugly and the local scene while playing with a slew of other Nashville artists.   Check them out here:  BandCamp: Dallas Ugly  Website: Dallasugly.com  IG: dallasugly  TikTok: Dallasuglymusic  Facebook: Dallas Ugly  YouTube: Dallas Ugly

Noemi Schramm Ndao lebt seit vier Jahren in Dakar, der Hauptstadt von Senegal in Westafrika. Die Gesundheitsökonomin aus Weinfelden (TG) hat mit Serge die Liebe ihres Lebens gefunden. Zwei unterschiedliche Kulturen und doch so verbunden. Die Thurgauerin Noemi Schramm Ndao lernte ihren senegalesischen Mann Serge in Sierra Leone kennen. Dort arbeitete sie einige Jahre als Gesundheitsökonomin für die Regierung. Eine gemeinsame Freundin hat die beiden einander vorgestellt. «Es war Liebe auf den ersten Blick», sagt die heute 36-Jährige: «Als ich Serge sah, wusste ich, das ist mein Mann fürs Leben.» Mittlerweile haben die beiden zwei Töchter und leben seit vier Jahren in der senegalesischen Hauptstadt Dakar. Die Gesundheitsökonomin versucht, Familie und Job zu vereinen. Ihr Mann Serge ist als Geschäftsleiter eines Start-ups ebenfalls gefordert. Trotzdem steht das Familienleben bei den beiden an oberster Stelle, sagt Noemi: «Wir sind ein eingefleischtes Team und geniessen jede freie Minute mit unseren beiden Töchtern.» In Dakar gibt es kaum grüne Pärke Dakar ist eine pulsierende Stadt mit reicher Kultur und Geschichte. Der Bauboom in der senegalesischen Hauptstadt ist kaum aufzuhalten. Ein Wachstum der Wirtschaft und der Bevölkerung sowie eine verhältnismässig stabile politische Lage machen Dakar attraktiv für neue Grossbauprojekte. Doch was in der Stadt am Meer fehlt, sind grüne Pärke und Spielplätze für Kinder: «Das ist der einzige Nachteil hier. Spielplätze gibt es höchsten in den grossen Shoppingcentern. Dafür machen wir aber viele Ausflüge ans Meer.»

The Texture of Change: Dress, Self-Fashioning, and History in Western Africa, 1700 – 1850 (Ohio UP, 2024) examines historical change across a broad region of western Africa—from Saint Louis, Senegal, to Freetown, Sierra Leone—through the development of textile commerce, consumption, and dress. Indigo-dyed and printed cotton, wool, linen, and silk cloths constituted major trade items that linked African producers and consumers to exchange networks that were both regional and global. While much of the historiography of commerce in Africa in the eighteenth century has focused on the Atlantic slave trade and its impact, this study follows the global cloth trade to account for the broad extent and multiple modes of western Africa's engagement with Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Jody Benjamin analyzes a range of archival, visual, oral, and material sources drawn from three continents to illuminate entanglements between local textile industries and global commerce and between the politics of Islamic reform and encroaching European colonial power. The study highlights the roles of a diverse range of historical actors mentioned only glancingly in core-periphery or Atlantic-centered framings: women indigo dyers, maroon cotton farmers, petty traveling merchants, caravan guides, and African Diaspora settlers. It argues that their combined choices within a set of ecological, political, and economic constraints structured networks connecting the Atlantic and Indian Ocean perimeters. Jody Benjamin is a social and cultural historian of western Africa with expertise in the period between 1650 and 1850. His research is informed by a methodological concern to center the diverse experiences and perspectives of Africans in ways that transcend the limitations of the colonial archive. In broad terms, Prof. Benjamin's scholarship interrogates the multiple connections between west African, African diaspora and global histories through the lens of material culture, technology, labor, gender and race to reshape how historians think about western Africa's role in the history of global capitalism and its connections to contemporary questions of global inequality. Dr. Benjamin's work has been supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), the University of California Regents, University of California Humanities Research Initiative (UCHRI), the Hellman Fellows Fund, and the John Carter Brown Library at Brown University. From 2022-2023, he was the Principal Investigator for a Mellon Sawyer Seminar, “Unarchiving Blackness,” exploring archival practices in African and African Diaspora Studies. Prior to Howard University, Dr. Benjamin taught at the University of California, Riverside. You can learn more about his work here.

Curator Sukanya Rajaratnam and biographer Jon Ott weld together African American culture and 20th century Western/European modernism, through Richard Hunt's 1956 sculpture, Hero's Head.Born on the South Side of Chicago, sculptor Richard Hunt (1935-2023) was immersed in the city's culture, politics, and architecture. At the major exhibition, Sculpture of the Twentieth Century, which travelled from the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York in 1953, he engaged with the works of artists Julio González, Pablo Picasso, and Constantin Brâncuși - encounters with Western/European modernism, that ‘catalysed' his use of metal, as the medium of his time and place.Hero's Head (1956), one of Richard's earliest mature works, was the first among many artistic responses dedicated to the legacy of Emmett Till. The previous year, Hunt joined over 100,000 mourners in attendance of the open-casket visitation of Till, a 14-year-old African American boy whose brutal lynching in Mississippi marked a seismic moment in national history. Modestly scaled to the dimensions of a human head, and delicately resting on a stainless-steel plinth, the welded steel sculpture preserves the image of Till's mutilated face. Composed of scrap metal parts, with dapples of burnished gold, it reflects the artist's use of found objects, and interest in ancient Greek and Roman mythology, which characterise his later works.With the first major European exhibition, and posthumous retrospective, of Richard's work at White Cube in London, curators Sukanya Rajaratnam and Jon Ott delve into the artist's prolific career. We critically discuss their diasporic engagement with cultural heritage; Richard collected over one thousand works of 'African art', referenced in sculptures like Dogonese (1985), and soon travelled to the continent for exhibitions like 10 Negro Artists from the US in Dakar, Senegal (1965). Jon details the reception of Richard's work, and engagement with the natural environment, connecting the ‘red soil' of Africa to agricultural plantations worked by Black slaves in southern America. We look at their work in a concurrent group exhibition at the Centre Pompidou, which retraces the presence and influence of Black artists in Paris, and considers the city as a ‘mobile site', highlighting the back-and-forth exchanges between artists, media, and movements like abstract expressionism. Shared forms are found in the works of French painters, Wangechi Mutu's Afrofuturist bronzes, and Richard's contemporaries practicing in France, Spain, Italy, and England.Plus, LeRonn P. Brooks, Curator at the Getty Research Institute, details Richard's ongoing legacies in public sculpture, and commemorations of those central to the Civil Rights Movement, including Martin Luther King Jr., Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Mary McLeod Bethune, Hobart Taylor Jr., and Jesse Owens.Richard Hunt: Metamorphosis is at White Cube Bermondsey in London until 29 June 2025.Paris Noir: Artistic circulations and anti-colonial resistance, 1950 – 2000 is at the Centre Pompidou in Paris until 30 June 2025.Listen to Sylvia Snowden at White Cube Paris, in the EMPIRE LINES episode on M Street (1978-1997).Hear more about Wangechi Mutu's This second dreamer (2017), with Ekow Eshun, curator of the touring exhibition, The Time is Always Now (2024).For more about Dogonese and ‘African masks' from Mali, listen to ⁠Manthia Diawara⁠, co-curator of The Trembling Museum at the Hunterian in Glasgow, part of ⁠PEACE FREQUENCIES 2023⁠.For more about ‘Negro Arts' exhibitions in Dakar, Senegal, read about Barbara Chase-Riboud: Infinite Folds at the Serpentine in London.For more about Black Southern Assemblage, hear Raina Lampkins-Felder, curator at the Souls Grown Deep Foundation and Royal Academy in London, on the Quiltmakers of Gee's Bend (20th Century-Now).

A full-on crisis around U.S.-China trade has eased for now, as both sides can proceed to the less spectacular work of negotiating an agreement. Also: how some Congress members are considering new rules barring politicians from using or sponsoring cryptocurrencies; how the German government has opened the door to outlawing the nation's second-most-popular party, the far-right Alternative for Germany; and how some young voters in Senegal feel disillusioned with President Bassirou Diomaye Faye's administration. Join the Monitor's Christa Case Bryant for today's news.

Send us a textWe are all under the same Sun. From Praia to Lagos, so much remains the same. It's always fascinated me how much, from Nigeria to Barbados to Jamaica to Angola to Guinea to Mozambique to Haiti to Senegal to Cape Verde, felt like a simulation. All these black men with the same disposition and mannerisms and bluetooths hanging out of their ear. I can't describe to you how funny all these cultures collectively are to me. Separated but you can't hide the roots. But are real conversations actually happening? Are these black men saying, “I'm going through it right now, I'm really struggling with ____”? Not so much that I've seen. We have to give people permission to be themselves sometimes. To say, “you can say how you actually feel and still be manly.” I guess that's one of my missions here. Anyway, Tomi & I sat down to put it on the line & air some dirty laundry. “You can't ruin a true connection by saying how you feel.” I believe that to my core. “The Brothers” (2001) served as the inspo for this one here, hope you enjoy. -WV

Na de ondertekening van het regeerakkoord tussen CDU/CSU en SPD leek de nieuwe Duitse coalitie in kannen en kruiken. Maar Friedrich Merz haalde vanochtend geheel onverwacht de meerderheid in de Bondsdag niet om beëdigd te worden. Over de betekenis van deze valse start en de koers waar dit kabinet op wil inzetten spreken we met correspondent Guy Hoeks en Marja Verburg van het Duitsland Instituut. (13:05) Senegal wil geen Franse munt meer Veel landen in West-Afrika, waaronder Senegal, willen af van de CFA-frank, de Franse postkoloniale munt waarvan de waarde vastgehaakt is aan de euro. Die munt belemmert economische groei daar. Maar een simpele oplossing is er niet, want de koppeling met de euro loslaten levert ook problemen op, laat verslaggever Eva Rammeloo horen in een reportage uit Senegal. Presentatie: Laila Frank

Series FiveThis episode of The New Abnormal podcast features Peter Cunliffe-Jones, visiting researcher at the University of Westminster and Director of Facts Matter Research, a misinformation research and strategy consultancy, where he advises organisations in effective ways to both counter the harmful consequences of misinformation and protect wider freedom of speech. Peter started his career as a news journalist for the AFP new agency - working for more than 20 years in Europe, Africa and Asia. He reported from Bosnia and Croatia on the last year of war and first 12 months of peace, from Nigeria on the end of decades of military rule, oversaw the agency's coverage of the Asian tsunami, developed its online news services. In 2012, he founded Africa Check, the African continent's first independent fact-checking organisation, which operates in South Africa, Senegal, Nigeria and Kenya.He's also run training courses for fact-checkers in countries from Afghanistan to Myanmar, worked as a strategic adviser to the Arab Fact-Checkers network, which seeks to foster nonpartisan fact-checking in the Arab world, and served on the Safety Advisory Council for TikTok in Africa.His new book is called "Fake News - what's the harm?" and presents four dynamic ideas for fact-checkers, policymakers and platforms on the challenge of information disorder.In our conversation, Peter discusses all of the above and more, in what I hope you'll agree is a fascinating episode. So – enjoy!

In this episode, Profs Devin Bryson (Illinois College) and Molly Krueger Enz (South Dakota State University) discuss their co-authored monograph, Projections of Dakar: (Re) Imagining Urban Senegal Through Cinema (Ohio University Press 2024). “Projections of Dakar studies the audiovisual creations and practices of twenty-first-century Senegalese filmmakers living, working, and distributing their films in urban Senegal. Although some observers have described contemporary Senegalese cinema as a dying industry, this book shows that it retains great potential. Senegalese cinematic practitioners are forging unique, dynamic responses to social challenges and producing content in innovative forms.” Music: Africa by Ismaïla Lo             Ndakarou by Youssou Ndour  

Everton's record-breaking wait for a Premier League win at Stamford Bridge continues as they were beaten 1-0 by Chelsea in the west London sunshine. Nicolas Jackson struck the only goal of the contest on 27 minutes when Beto gave up possession cheaply and the Senegal international striker struck a low drive beyond Jordan Pickford. Although the hosts threatened to run riot at that time having dominated the first half, David Moyes' men, playing their first fixture after their Premier League status had been secured for next season improved as the contest wore on. Abdoulaye Doucoure should have done better with a header just before the break while both Beto and substitute Dwight McNeil were denied in the second half as the visitors searched in vain for an equaliser.

In this powerful episode of the Sumud Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Butch Ware, public intellectual, artist, activist, and former U.S. Vice Presidential candidate. From his upbringing in DC and Minneapolis to his deep immersion in West African Islamic traditions, Dr. Ware weaves personal stories with global liberation movements to deliver a compelling call to resist imperialism and build collective healing. He shares how Zionism functions as the last breath of white supremacist settler colonialism, the importance of faith, and the urgent need to reclaim spiritual resistance as a tool of decolonization. We also explore his deeply personal journey into Islam through Malcolm X, his academic work including The Walking Qur'an, and his bold political vision for restorative justice and unity across humanity.

Durante ocho meses y medio, recorrieron diez países, desde Marruecos hasta Costa de Marfil, enfrentándose a retos físicos y personales, viviendo anécdotas inolvidables y adaptando sus planes según las circunstancias. Inicialmente, su idea era llegar hasta Uganda, pero la experiencia les enseñó que el ritmo del viaje y la realidad de cada etapa marcan el camino. Recorrieron Marruecos, Sáhara Occidental, Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Casamance (sur de Senegal), Guinea Bissau, Guinea Conakry, Sierra Leona, Liberia y Costa de Marfil. En este pódcast comparten las motivaciones que los llevaron a iniciar esta aventura, los momentos que definieron su ruta y el aprendizaje que trajeron consigo al regresar a casa el 29 de mayo de 2023. ⚠️ Más información y fotos en: https://bit.ly/ander-y-garbi ❤️ ¿Te gusta este podcast?

Fran Contreras junto con Miguel Ángel Rodríguez (Albergue Reboleira-Fonfría/Lugo) y Celes Alonso (Albergue El Cántaro - Navarrete/La Rioja), todos miembros de Hospitaleros Sin Fronteras, nos cuentan como es su trabajo y el de los más de cien voluntarios en Senegal.
