A Parisian artist, who has roots in both Africa and the Caribbean, has spoken to FRANCE 24 about how as a child she could not even dream of her work being on display in a gallery in the city. Roxane Mbanga's exhibition sees her reconstruct the rooms of her dream house. She's done that by weaving together the threads of her heritage from Guadeloupe, Cameroon and the Ivory Coast. She says her work focuses on Black women and their "different perspective". Mbanga spoke to us in Perspective.

God's Existence: Truth or Fiction? the Answer Revealed by Gary R. Lindberg Garyrlindberg.com https://www.amazon.com/Gods-Existence-Fiction-Answer-Revealed/dp/1648042732 God's Existence: Truth or Fiction? The Answer Revealed By: Gary R. Lindberg Studying the existence of God, Lindberg takes a different approach by investigating science as well as Christian research. Lindberg's unique approach suggests that both science and the Bible were created by God and as a result the two say the same thing. Lindberg's message will show that science itself proves the existence of God because of the evidence presented.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the heartbreaking Catholic school shooting in Minneapolis, a wave of swatting attacks targeting U.S. colleges, and global updates from Iran, Greenland, Vietnam, and West Africa. From domestic terror and cultural battles at home to mineral wars and Islamist violence abroad, today's brief delivers the facts shaping America's future. Minneapolis Catholic School Shooting: A 23-year-old man who identified as transgender opened fire outside a Catholic school, killing two children and injuring 17 others. In his manifesto he wrote, “I do it to please myself… I do it because I am sick.” The school's priest begged, “I ask you to — please — pray,” while Democrats like Jen Psaki shot back, “Prayer is not freaking enough.” Bryan calls Psaki's remarks “a demand of the evil and wicked” and links the shooter's instability to cross-sex hormones, THC use, and the broader dangers of experimental “gender affirming care.” Swatting Attacks Target U.S. Colleges: Universities from South Carolina to Colorado were hit by fake active-shooter calls, prompting dangerous police raids. Wired identifies the culprits as an online group called Purgatory, who brag they are “nihilistic” and do it for fun and cash. Bryan argues the crime warrants capital punishment: “You rip this stuff and these people out by the root.” Foreign Spies Captured Bolton's Emails: The New York Times confirms that a foreign intelligence service intercepted classified emails John Bolton sent to his wife and daughter from an unsecured system. Democrats call Trump's DOJ “fascist,” but Bryan insists, “Had I done what John Bolton did, I would be in prison a long time ago.” Iran's Nuclear Stockpile Neutralized: Satellite images confirm Trump's Operation Midnight Hammer left 900 pounds of enriched uranium entombed at Isfahan. The IAEA backs the finding, despite Iran threatening its director Rafael Grossi with death. Bryan says the news proves firing DIA chief Jeffrey Kruse for downplaying the strike was “a good clean-out of the Deep State.” American Operatives Stir Trouble in Greenland: The Wall Street Journal reports suspected Trump-linked contractors are recruiting Greenlanders for separatist movements, sparking tensions with Denmark. Bryan suspects, “These guys are more like Erik Prince's Blackwater than CIA professionals — sloppy, but maybe effective.” China Moves to Corner Vietnam's Tungsten Supply: Reuters reveals Chinese firms are secretly bidding for Vietnam's tungsten mines through front companies. With the U.S. sourcing a quarter of its tungsten from Vietnam, Bryan warns this could leave America “utterly dependent” on Beijing for another critical mineral. Islamist Violence in Ivory Coast Spurs U.S. Base Plans: Militants from Burkina Faso kill farmers in northern Ivory Coast, part of a growing jihadist campaign across West Africa. The U.S. considers building a drone and Special Forces base in Benin, Ghana, or Ivory Coast to counter both Islamists and China's expanding footprint in African resources and fishing.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Minneapolis Catholic school shooting, transgender shooter manifesto, Jen Psaki prayer remarks, THC psychosis gender dysphoria, U.S. college swatting attacks Purgatory group, John Bolton unsecured emails espionage, Operation Midnight Hammer uranium entombed, Jeffrey Kruse DIA firing, Trump Greenland operatives separatist movement, China Vietnam tungsten mine, U.S. dependence critical minerals, Ivory Coast Islamist attack Burkina Faso, U.S. West Africa drone base, China Africa bauxite cocoa fishing

West Ham are interested in Forest midfielder Sangare, but will Forest let him go? To Buy Wolfie A Coffee! Click Here: https://buymeacoffee.com/forestfantv Welcome to the latest transfer update on Forest Fan TV, where Wolfie dives into the breaking news surrounding Nottingham Forest's transfer market activity! One major talking point is the potential swoop from West Ham for Forest midfielder Ibrahim Sangare, with reports suggesting the Hammers are keen on the Ivory Coast international. Despite his limited starts last season due to injury, Sangare's £30m price tag and proven quality from his PSV days have sparked interest, but Wolfie explores whether Forest would really let him go, especially with Nuno Espírito Santo valuing his physical presence in midfield as they prepare for Europa League action. In addition to the Sangare saga, Forest are actively pursuing full-back targets to bolster their squad, with two names making headlines. Atlético Madrid's Nahuel Molina, a 27-year-old Argentine World Cup winner, has emerged as a surprise loan option after the club signed Marc Pubill, while Leicester City's Viktor Kristiansen, a 22-year-old Danish left-back, is also on the radar following his impressive loan spell at Bologna. Wolfie breaks down how these players could fit into Nuno's system, offering competition for Neco Williams and Ola Aina, and whether their potential transfers could signal a strategic shift at the City Ground. Jump into the comments and let us know your thoughts! Would you be happy to see Sangare leave for West Ham, or do you think he's vital for Forest's ambitions? Are you excited about Molina or Kristiansen joining as full-back options, or do you have other targets in mind? Share your opinions on these moves and Forest's transfer strategy as the window heats up.

What if everything you thought about diversification was incomplete? In this eye-opening session, Brad Barrie of Dynamic Wealth Group challenges conventional wisdom about portfolio construction with a deliciously simple analogy: building an investment portfolio is like baking the perfect cookie.Most investors focus on finding either the best ingredients (top-rated investments) or creating the perfect recipe (advanced allocation models), but rarely excel at both. The result? Portfolios that appear diversified on colorful pie charts but actually contain just "two colors" – stocks and bonds – that move in unison when markets face stress.Berry introduces a multi-dimensional approach to asset allocation that goes beyond traditional diversification. Just as a cookie needs non-sweet ingredients like salt and flour to succeed, portfolios require truly non-correlated assets that work according to different economic drivers. The Dynamic Alpha Macro Fund, 2023's top-performing macro trading fund in its category, uniquely combines fundamental global macro futures strategies with long-only equity exposure to target smoother returns without compromising long-term performance potential.Through compelling examples like how weather patterns in the Ivory Coast affect cocoa prices independently of stock market movements, Barrie demonstrates "non-correlation with causation" – investments with logical, understandable drivers completely disconnected from traditional market forces. This approach proves especially valuable in today's high-valuation environment, where historical data suggests muted future equity returns.Whether you're currently using alternatives and seeking better diversification or looking to add non-correlation for the first time, this presentation offers a fresh perspective on building more resilient portfolios. Remember: if everything in your portfolio rises together, it will fall together too.

This Day in Legal History: Grant DiesOn July 23, 1885, Ulysses S. Grant—former president and Union general—died of throat cancer at age 63. While honored as a national hero, Grant spent his final years in financial ruin due to a high-profile fraud scandal. He had invested heavily in a Wall Street brokerage firm, Grant & Ward, run in part by his son and the scheming financier Ferdinand Ward. Ward operated what would now be recognized as a Ponzi scheme, using incoming investments to pay off earlier clients and falsely promising high returns. When the scheme collapsed in 1884, Grant lost virtually everything, and the public was stunned to see a former president facing poverty.Rather than accept charity, Grant chose to write his memoirs as a final act of financial restoration. He completed them just days before his death, and their publication by Mark Twain's publishing house ultimately secured his family's financial future. Meanwhile, Ferdinand Ward was arrested, tried, and convicted of grand larceny in 1885. He served six years in prison, and his case became one of the most publicized white-collar crime prosecutions of the 19th century.Legally, the case underscored the absence of federal oversight in securities and investment practices during the Gilded Age. There were no federal securities laws or regulatory agencies at the time, and prosecution of fraud fell to local authorities using traditional theft statutes. The scandal later became a reference point in discussions around the need for more structured investor protections, eventually influencing the rationale for the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Grant's financial downfall, despite his stature, revealed the vulnerability of even prominent individuals to unchecked financial fraud.A federal judge ruled that President Trump unlawfully removed two Democratic members of the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) board. U.S. District Judge Amir Ali held that the firings of Todd Harper and Tanya Otsuka in April violated congressional protections that limit when board members can be dismissed. The decision orders both officials reinstated. At the time of their removal, only one board member remained—Republican Chairman Kyle Hauptman—leaving a regulatory gap in oversight of the $2.3 trillion credit union sector.Harper, initially appointed by Trump in 2019 and later elevated to chairman by President Biden, was serving a term set to expire in 2027. Otsuka was confirmed in 2023 with a term ending in 2029. Both argued their dismissals were unprecedented in the NCUA's nearly 50-year history. The Trump administration defended the firings by asserting broad presidential authority to remove such officials at will, a position echoed in other disputes over the limits of executive power at independent agencies. The ruling reinforces the legal principle that certain regulatory positions are protected from politically motivated removals.US judge rules Trump illegally fired two Democratic members of credit union agency | ReutersThe U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit dismissed a class action lawsuit brought by eight Malian citizens against Hershey, Nestlé, and five other major cocoa companies. The plaintiffs alleged they were trafficked as children and forced to work under brutal conditions on cocoa farms in Ivory Coast. They sought to hold the companies liable under U.S. laws against human trafficking and forced labor. However, the court ruled 3-0 that the complaint failed to plausibly connect the plaintiffs' forced labor to cocoa specifically sourced by the defendants.Judge Justin Walker wrote that while the companies purchase a large share of Ivorian cocoa, the complaint did not establish that the cocoa harvested by the plaintiffs ended up in the defendants' supply chains. The court emphasized that a general connection to a region is insufficient to meet legal standards for liability under trafficking laws. The trial court had previously ruled in favor of the companies in 2022.The plaintiffs' attorney, Terry Collingsworth, criticized the ruling, arguing that global corporations are effectively shielded from accountability by the opacity of their supply chains. He said his clients are considering further legal action. This decision follows a March 2024 ruling by the same court that dismissed similar claims against tech companies over child labor in cobalt mining in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.Hershey, Nestle, other cocoa companies defeat appeal of child slavery lawsuit | ReutersThe U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit ruled that New Jersey cannot enforce its 2021 law banning new contracts for immigrant detention facilities. The court sided with CoreCivic, a major private prison operator, which had sued the state over the law's potential to block the renewal of its contract for a 300-bed detention center near Newark Airport. In a 2-1 decision, the panel held that New Jersey's ban unconstitutionally interferes with federal immigration enforcement, which relies heavily on private detention centers.Writing for the majority, Judge Stephanos Bibas stated that states cannot obstruct the federal government's operational choices, including its use of private contractors. The ruling emphasized that immigration enforcement is a federal domain, and state laws cannot disrupt its execution. Judge Thomas Ambro dissented, arguing the law only regulated state and local government actions, not the federal government directly.The case has national implications, as the federal government under both Republican and Democratic administrations has defended its authority to contract with private facilities for immigration detention. Critics, including New Jersey's attorney general and immigrant rights groups, argue that privatized detention presents serious health and safety risks and prioritizes profit over human rights. The ruling follows similar court decisions, including a 2022 case blocking California's comparable law while upholding a narrower Illinois statute.US court blocks New Jersey ban on immigrant detention in CoreCivic lawsuit | ReutersA federal judge in Manhattan formally dismissed a mail fraud case that had been effectively resolved over three decades ago but never officially closed. The defendant, Yousef Elyaho, was charged in 1991 with one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud. In 1993, he entered a deferred prosecution agreement, and his bond was released, meaning the case should have been dismissed if he complied with the agreement. However, due to an apparent administrative oversight, the case remained open on the docket for 32 years.No legal action occurred until 1999, when the case was oddly marked as reassigned to “Judge Unassigned,” and then sat idle for another 26 years. It was only in 2025 that the case came to the attention of U.S. District Judge Ronnie Abrams, who officially closed it. Assistant U.S. Attorney Frank Balsamello acknowledged in a court filing that the government had intended to dismiss the case back in 1993.This unusual situation highlights how clerical errors can leave cases unresolved, despite defendants meeting their legal obligations. The judge's action brings formal closure to a prosecution that, in practice, ended decades ago.US ends a mail fraud case, 32 years late | ReutersAnd in a piece I wrote for Forbes this week:I draw a comparison between ancient Egypt's pyramid-building and the current surge in data center construction across the United States. In both cases, monumental building serves more as a symbol of legitimacy and power than as a practical investment in public welfare. Pharaohs once drained resources to erect ever-larger pyramids, eventually destabilizing their own society. Today, states offer enormous tax incentives to attract data centers—facilities that often generate minimal long-term employment while consuming huge amounts of electricity and water.In the piece, I focus on how these data centers, like the pyramids, have become political symbols. They are marketed as engines of innovation and economic growth but often leave the public footing the bill for infrastructure costs and strained utilities. For example, Pennsylvania passed a $75 million tax exemption for data centers, and similar policies have ballooned to over $1 billion in Texas. Meanwhile, the promised economic benefits frequently fail to materialize.I argue that this race to build tech infrastructure, without considering long-term sustainability or community impact, mirrors a historical pathology: spectacle overtaking substance. These facilities may one day be ruins of a different kind—monuments not to progress, but to political ambition and misaligned priorities.The Pharaohs Built Pyramids—We Build Data Centers This is a public episode.

In this Market Mondays clip, hosts Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings dive deep into their recent experiences in Africa, uncovering surprising perspectives and huge opportunities on the continent.The conversation kicks off with a candid look at how African leaders and government insiders see American politics, especially the surprising pro-Trump sentiment among some officials. Rashad reveals that many on the continent actually prefer a “hands-off” Republican approach, seeing it as less meddlesome than Democratic policies. This segment offers a rare global perspective on US politics and what it means for international investment.Next, the trio explores Africa's emerging role as the world's breadbasket. Beyond minerals, the future is in farming—think mega-farms, massive livestock operations, and the enormous value of African produce. Did you know that 80% of the roses gracing Europe's Valentine's Day come straight out of Kenya? Or that Ghana and Ivory Coast are responsible for 80% of the world's cocoa supply? The team spotlights the hidden goldmine in African agriculture, from lucrative tea farms in Kenya to the skyrocketing demand for land and food production.They also touch on why international players—from Europe to China—are increasingly investing in Africa, despite media narratives. With fertile soil, ideal climates, and a talented local workforce, Africa is positioned not just as a resource hub, but as a critical player in future global food security.Plus, there's a special shoutout to Rashad's book "You Deserve To Be Rich" making Barnes & Noble's top reads of 2025 so far! And, they highlight the need for more African bookstores and access to educational resources.Whether you're an investor, entrepreneur, or just curious about global trends, this clip is packed with insights on Africa's agricultural boom, international politics, and untapped opportunities that could shape the next 50 years.*Key topics in this clip:* ✔️ African perspectives on US politics: Republicans vs. Democrats ✔️ The next big wave: farming, vegetation & livestock ✔️ Surprising stats: Kenyan roses, Ghanaian cocoa, and more ✔️ How global powers are investing in Africa's future ✔️ Book shoutouts & the importance of access to resourcesDon't miss this in-depth conversation—your next big investment idea might just be growing in African soil!*Hashtags:* #MarketMondays #AfricaInvestment #FarmingGoldRush #GlobalPolitics #AfricanAgriculture #MarketInsights #YouDeserveToBeRich #KenyanRoses #GhanaCocoa #EconomicTrends #AfricanDevelopment #Clip---
