Born and raised in Ottawa, Canada, Caleb Latreille has spent most of his adult life wandering across both the planet and creative disciplines. As a youth, he was a prolific writer, writing and directing for the theatre and becoming deeply involved in the North American zine scene of the late 1990s and early aughts. After a move to Halifax, Nova Scotia, his work with paper shifted towards music: creating posters, fliers, and cassette booklets as a DJ/organizer and selling handmade mixtapes at local craft and record fairs; and to mail art, keeping ties with friends made through zines or while travelling across North America as a record collector, a hitchhiking banjo player, and an occasional roadie and tour manager. A growing focus on DJing led to moves to Melbourne, Montreal, and Negril, and to music production and audio engineering. Eventually, buying a camera to document life at a volunteer-run recording studio in Halifax, he fell in love with photography and has since concentrated his efforts on portraiture. Owing to his past, youth culture and nostalgia are prominent themes in his work. He is currently in the process of immigrating to Lusaka, Zambia.Check his work out @caleblatreille

Moçambique asinalou este ano, a 25 de Junho, os 50 anos da sua independência. Por esta ocasião, a RFI propôs-vos um percurso pela história do país e a sua luta pela liberdade. Quando 2025 está prestes a chegar ao fim, tornamos a debruçar-nos sobre este cinquentenário, com alguns momentos marcantes dessa digressão. A luta armada pela independência em Moçambique encontra as suas raízes imediatas em vários acontecimentos. Um deles será o encontro organizado a 16 de Junho de 1960 em Mueda, no extremo norte do país, entre a administração colonial e a população local que reclamava um preço justo pela sua produção agricola. Só que no final dessa reunião, deu-se a detenção de alguns dos representantes do povo e em seguida a execução a tiro de um número até agora indeterminado de pessoas. Dois anos depois do massacre de Mueda, três organizações nacionalistas, a UDENAMO, União Democrática Nacional de Moçambique, a MANU, Mozambique African National Union e a UNAMI, União Nacional Africana de Moçambique Independente, reúnem-se em Dar-es-Salaam, na Tanzânia, a 25 de Junho de 1962 e fundem-se numa só entidade, a Frelimo, Frente de Libertação de Moçambique. Sob a direcção do seu primeiro presidente, o universitário Eduardo Mondlane, e a vice-presidência do reverendo Uria Simango, a Frelimo tenta negociar a independência com o poder colonial -em vão- o que desemboca na acção armada a partir de 1964. O antigo Presidente moçambicano, Joaquim Chissano, recorda essa época. “Nessa altura, nós, já estudantes, que tínhamos deixado Portugal, que estávamos na França, tomamos conhecimento disso juntamente com o Dr. Eduardo Mondlane, que trabalhava nas Nações Unidas. No nosso encontro em Paris decidimos que devíamos trabalhar, a partir daquele momento, para a unificação dos movimentos de libertação, para que houvesse uma luta mais forte. Mesmo a luta diplomática, que foi a coisa que começou, havia de ser mais forte se houvesse um movimento unificado. É assim que surge uma frente. (...) Foram três movimentos que formaram uma frente unida que se chamou a Frente de Libertação de Moçambique. E essa Frente de Libertação de Moçambique continuou a procurar meios para ver se os portugueses haviam de acatar a Resolução das Nações Unidas de 1960 sobre a descolonização. E, finalmente, quando se viu que, de facto, os portugueses não iriam fazer isso, particularmente depois do massacre da Mueda, decidiu-se começar a preparação para uma insurreição armada. E assim houve treinos militares na Argélia, onde foram formados 250 homens, porque também a luta dos argelinos nos inspirou. Então, eles próprios, depois da criação da Organização da Unidade Africana e da criação do Comité de Coordenação das Lutas de Libertação em África, fomos a esses treinos na Argélia e a Argélia é que nos forneceu os primeiros armamentos para desencadear a luta de libertação nacional”, recorda o antigo Chefe de Estado. Ao referir que a causa recebeu apoio nomeadamente da Rússia e da China, Joaquim Chissano sublinha que “a luta foi desencadeada com a ajuda principalmente africana. E mais tarde vieram esses países. A Rússia deu um apoio substancial em termos de armamento. (...)Depois também mandamos pessoas para serem treinadas na China e mais tarde, já em 1965, quando a China fica proeminente na formação político-militar na Tanzânia, mandaram vir instrutores a nosso pedido e a pedido da Tanzânia.” Sobre o arranque da luta em si, o antigo Presidente moçambicano refere que os ataques comeram em quatro frentes em simultâneo. “Nós, em 1964, criámos grupos que enviamos para a Zambézia, enviamos para Niassa, enviamos para Cabo Delgado e enviamos para Tete. Portanto, em quatro províncias simultaneamente. No dia 25 de Setembro (de 1964) desencadeamos a luta armada de libertação nacional. Porque também a ‘insurreição geral armada', como o Presidente Mondlane denominou, começou em quatro províncias em simultâneo”, recorda Joaquim Chissano. Óscar Monteiro, membro sénior da Frelimo integrou as fileiras do partido em 1963, quando era jovem líder estudantil em Portugal. Depois de um período de clandestinidade, ele torna-se representante do partido em Argel, epicentro das lutas independentistas do continente. Ao evocar a missão que lhe incumbia em Argel, Óscar Monteiro refere que o seu trabalho consistia em “fazer a propaganda do movimento de libertação em francês. Nós já tínhamos representações no Cairo, tínhamos um departamento de informação que produzia documentos, o ‘Mozambique Revolution', que era uma revista muito apreciada, que depois era impressa mesmo em offset. Mas não tínhamos publicações em francês. Então, coube-nos a nós, na Argélia, já desde o tempo do Pascoal Mocumbi, produzir boletins em francês, traduzir os comunicados de guerra e alimentar a imprensa argelina que nos dava muito acolhimento sobre o desenvolvimento da luta, a abertura da nova frente em Tete, etc e ganhar o apoio também dos diplomatas de vários países, incluindo de países ocidentais que estavam acreditados na Argélia. Falávamos com todos os diplomatas. Prosseguimos esses contactos. O grande trabalho ali era dirigido sobre a França e sobre os países de expressão francesa. Era um tempo de grande actividade política, é preciso dizer. Eram os tempos que precederam o Maio de 68. Enfim, veio um bocado de toda esta mudança. E tínhamos bastante audiência”. Durante esta luta que durou dez anos, o conflito foi-se alastrando no terreno mas igualmente no campo diplomático. Poucos meses depois de uma deslocação a Londres em que a sua voz foi amplamente ouvida, a 3 de Fevereiro de 1969, em Dar-es-Salam onde estava sediada a Frelimo, o líder do partido, Eduardo Mondlane, abre uma encomenda contendo uma bomba. A explosão do engenho é-lhe fatal. Até agora, pouco se sabe acerca desse assassínio sobre o qual Joaquim Chissano, então responsável do pelouro da segurança da Frelimo, acredita que haverá a mão da PIDE, a polícia política do regime fascista de Portugal. “Havia já alguns indícios de que havia movimentos de pessoas enviadas pelo colonialismo, mesmo para a Tanzânia, como foi o caso do Orlando Cristina, que chegou a entrar em Dar-es-Salaam e fazer espionagem. Disse que trabalhou com os sul-africanos em 1964 e continuou. Depois houve o recrutamento, isso já em 1967-68, de pessoas da Frelimo que tentaram criar uma divisão nas linhas tribais, mas que na realidade não eram representativos das tribos que eles representavam, porque a maioria eram ex-combatentes que estavam solidamente a representar a unidade nacional. Foi assim que tivemos uns traidores que depois foram levados pelos portugueses de avião e de helicópteros e entraram a fazer campanha aberta, propaganda e até houve um grupo que chegou a reivindicar a expulsão do nosso presidente, dizendo que ele devia receber uma bolsa de estudos. Quer dizer, a ignorância deles era tal que eles não viram, não souberam que ele era um doutor -duas vezes doutor- e que não era para pensar em bolsa de estudo. Mas pronto, havia um movimento de agitação. Mas a frente era tão sólida que não se quebrou. Por isso, então, foi se fortalecendo à medida que íamos andando para a frente”, conclui Joaquim Chissano. Outro episódio marcante do inicio do declínio do controlo do regime colonial em Moçambique será o Massacre de Wiriyamu ou "Operação Marosca" . A partir de 16 de Dezembro de 1972 e durante mais de três dias, depois de dois capitães portugueses morrerem quando o seu veiculo pisou numa mina, as tropas coloniais massacraram pelo menos 385 habitantes da aldeia de Wiriyamu e das localidades vizinhas de Djemusse, Riachu, Juawu e Chaworha, na província de Tete, acusados de colaborarem com os independentistas. A ordem foi de "matar todos", sem  fazer a distinção entre civis, mulheres e crianças. Algumas pessoas foram pura e simplesmente fuziladas, outras mortas queimadas dentro das suas habitações incendiadas. Mustafah Dhada, historiador moçambicano e professor catedrático na Universidade de Califórnia, dedicou uma parte importante da sua vida a investigar este massacre que foi denunciado pelo mundo fora nos meses seguintes, constituindo segundo o estudioso um acontecimento "tectónico". “O massacre, tem que ser contextualizado no espaço do sistema colonial português em África. E nesse sentido, o massacre era um dos vários massacres que aconteceram em Moçambique, em Angola, na Guiné-Bissau, em São Tomé e Príncipe e também o massacre estrutural do meio ambiente em Cabo Verde. Devemos notar uma coisa: a guerra colonial portuguesa, a baixa era de 110.000 pessoas, aproximadamente civis na nossa parte dos libertadores e dos colonizados e o massacre é somente 385 pessoas que têm um nome e outros que desapareceram sem nome. E neste sentido o massacre é, do ponto de vista quantitativo, um massacre que tem uma significação menor. Mas o que foi importantíssimo é que o massacre não iria ser reconhecido como um evento tectónico se não tivesse havido uma presença da Igreja -não portuguesa- em Tete”, sublinha o historiador aludindo às denúncias que foram feitas por missionários a seguir ao massacre. Após vários anos em diversas frentes de guerra, capitães das forças armadas portuguesas derrubam a ditatura a 25 de Abril de 1974. A revolução dos cravos levanta ondas de esperança em Portugal mas também nos países africanos. A independência pode estar por perto, mas é ainda preciso ver em que modalidades. Pouco depois do 25 de Abril, as novas autoridades portuguesas e a Frelimo começaram a negociar os termos da independência de Moçambique. O partido de Samora Machel foi reconhecido como interlocutor legítimo por Portugal e instituiu-se um período de transição num ambiente de incerteza, recorda o antigo Presidente Joaquim Chissano. “A nossa delegação veio com a posição de exigir uma independência total, completa e imediata. Mas pronto, tivemos que dar um conteúdo a esse ‘imediato'. Enquanto a delegação portuguesa falava de 20 anos, falávamos de um ano e negociamos datas. Deram então um consenso para uma data que não feria ninguém. Então, escolhemos o 25 de Junho. Daí que, em vez de um ano, foram nove meses. E o que tínhamos que fazer era muito simples Era, primeiro, acompanhar todos os preparativos para a retirada das tropas portuguesas com o material que eles tinham que levar e também em algumas partes, a parte portuguesa aceitou preparar as nossas forças, por exemplo, para se ocupar das questões da polícia que nós não tínhamos. Houve um treino rápido. Depois, na administração, nós tínhamos que substituir os administradores coloniais para os administradores indicados pela Frelimo. Falo dos administradores nos distritos e dos governadores nas sedes das províncias. Nas capitais provinciais, portanto, havia governadores de província e administradores de distritos e até chefes de posto administrativo, que era a subdivisão dos distritos. E então, fizemos isso ao mesmo tempo que nos íamos ocupando da administração do território. Nesses nove meses já tivemos que tomar conta de várias coisas: a criação do Banco de Moçambique e outras organizações afins, seguros e outros. Então houve uma acção dos poderes nesses organismos. Ainda houve negociações que foram efectuadas em Maputo durante o governo de transição, aonde tínhamos uma comissão mista militar e tínhamos uma comissão para se ocupar dos Assuntos económicos. Vinham representantes portugueses em Portugal e trabalhavam connosco sobre as questões das finanças, etc. E foi todo um trabalho feito com muita confiança, porque durante o diálogo acabamos criando a confiança uns dos outros”, lembra-se o antigo chefe de Estado moçambicano. Joaquim Chissano não deixa, contudo, de dar conta de algumas apreensões que existiam naquela altura no seio da Frelimo relativamente a movimentos contra a independência por parte não só de certos sectores em Portugal, mas também dos próprios países vizinhos, como a África do Sul, que viam com maus olhos a instauração de um novo regime em Moçambique. “Evidentemente que nós víamos com muita inquietação essa questão, porque primeiro houve tentativas de dividir as forças de Moçambique e dar falsas informações à população. E no dia mesmo em que nós assinamos o acordo em Lusaka, no dia 7 de Setembro, à noite, houve o assalto à Rádio Moçambique por um grupo que tinha antigos oficiais militares já reformados, juntamente com pessoas daquele grupo que tinha sido recrutado para fazer uma campanha para ver se desestabilizava a Frelimo”, diz o antigo líder politico. A 7 de Setembro de 1974, é assinado o Acordo de Lusaka instituindo os termos da futura independência de Moçambique. Certos sectores politicos congregados no autoproclamado ‘Movimento Moçambique Livre' tomam o controlo do Rádio Clube de Moçambique em Maputo. Até serem desalojados da emissora no dia 10 de Junho, os membros do grupo adoptam palavras de ordem contra a Frelimo. Na rua, edificios são vandalizados, o aeroporto é tomado de assalto, um grupo armado denominado os ‘Dragões da Morte' mata de forma indiscriminada os habitantes dos bairros do caniço. Vira-se uma página aos solavancos em Moçambique. Evita-se por pouco chacinas maiores. Antigos colonos decidem ficar, outros partem. Depois de nove meses de transição em que a governação é assegurada por um executivo hibrido entre portugueses e moçambicanos, o país torna-se oficialmente independente a 25 de Junho de 1975. Doravante, Moçambique é representado por um único partido. Ainda antes da independência e nos primeiros anos depois de Moçambique se libertar do regime colonial, foram instituidos campos de reeducação, essencialmente na distante província do Niassa. O objectivo declarado desses campos era formar o homem novo, reabilitar pelo trabalho, as franjas da sociedade que eram consideradas mais marginais ou dissidentes. Foi neste âmbito que pessoas consideradas adversárias políticas foram detidas e mortas. Isto sucedeu nomeadamente com Uria Simango, Joana Simeão e Adelino Guambe, figuras que tinham sido activas no seio da Frelimo e que foram acusadas de traição por não concordarem com a linha seguida pelo partido. Omar Ribeiro Thomaz antropólogo ligado à Universidade de Campinas, no Brasil, que se debruçou de forma detalhada sobre os campos de reeducação, evoca este aspecto pouco falado da História recente de Moçambique. "Os campos de reeducação são pensados ainda no período de transição. Então, isso é algo que ainda deve ser discutido dentro da própria história portuguesa, porque no período de transição, o Primeiro-ministro era Joaquim Chissano, mas o governador-geral era português. Então, nesse momento, começam expedientes que são os campos de reeducação. Você começa a definir pessoas que deveriam ser objecto de reeducação, ao mesmo tempo em que você começa a ter uma grande discussão em Moçambique sobre quem são os inimigos e esses inimigos, eles têm nome. Então essas são pessoas que de alguma maneira não tiveram a protecção do Estado português. Isso é muito importante. Não conseguiram fugir. São caçadas literalmente, e são enviadas para um julgamento num tribunal popular. Eu estou a falar de personagens como a Joana Simeão, o Padre Mateus, Uria Simango, que são condenados como inimigos, como traidores. Esses são enviados para campos de presos políticos. A Frelimo vai usar uma retórica de que esses indivíduos seriam objecto de um processo de reeducação. Mas o que nós sabemos a partir de relatos orais e de alguns documentos que nós conseguimos encontrar ao longo do tempo, é que essas pessoas foram confinadas em campos de trabalho forçado, de tortura, de imenso sofrimento e que chega num determinado momento que não sabemos exactamente qual é, mas que nós podemos situar mais ou menos ali, por 1977, elas são assassinadas de forma vil", diz o antropólogo. Lutero Simango, líder do partido de oposição Movimento Democrático de Moçambique, perdeu o pai, Uria Simango, um dos membros-fundadores da Frelimo, mas igualmente a mãe. Ambos foram detidos e em seguida executados. "O meu pai foi uma das peças-chaves na criação da Frente de Libertação de Moçambique. Ele nunca foi imposto. Os cargos que ele assumiu dentro da organização foram na base da eleição. Ele e tantos outros foram acusados de serem neocolonialistas. Foram acusados de defender o capitalismo. Foram acusados de defenderem a burguesia nacional. Toda aquela teoria, aqueles rótulos que os comunistas davam a todos aqueles que não concordassem com eles. Mas se olharmos para o Moçambique de hoje, se perguntarmos quem são os donos dos nossos recursos, vai verificar que são os mesmos aqueles que ontem acusavam os nossos pais", diz o responsável político de oposição. Questionado sobre as informações que tem acerca das circunstâncias em que os pais foram mortos, Lutero Simango refere continuar sem saber. "Até hoje ninguém nos disse. E as famílias, o que pedem é que se indique o local em que foram enterrados para que todas as famílias possam prestar a última homenagem. O governo da Frelimo tem a responsabilidade de indicar às famílias e também assumir a culpa, pedindo perdão ao povo moçambicano, porque estas pessoas e tantas outras foram injustamente mortas neste processo", reclama Lutero Simango. A obtenção da independência não significou a paz para Moçambique. No interior do país, várias vozes se insurgiram contra o caminho que estava a ser tomado pelo país, designadamente no que tange ao monopartidarismo. Além disso, países segregacionistas como a África do Sul e a antiga Rodésia viram com maus olhos as instauração de um sistema político socialista em Moçambique, Foi neste contexto que surgiu em 1975, a Resistência Nacional de Moçambique, Renamo, um movimento inicialmente dirigido por um dissidente da Frelimo, André Matsangaíssa e em seguida, após a morte deste último em 1979, por Afonso Dhlakama, já dois anos depois de começar a guerra civil. António Muchanga, antigo deputado da Renamo, recorda em que circunstâncias surgiu o partido. "A Renamo nasce da revolta do povo moçambicano quando viu que as suas aspirações estavam adiadas. Segundo os historiadores, na altura em que o objectivo era que depois da frente voltariam se definir o que é que queriam. Só que durante a luta armada de libertação nacional, começou o abate de prováveis pessoas que poderiam 'ameaçar' o regime.(...) E depois tivemos a situação das nacionalizações. Quando a Frelimo chega logo em 1976, começa com as nacionalizações.(...) Então isto criou problemas que obrigaram que jovens na altura Afonso Dhlakama, sentiram se obrigados a abandonar a Frelimo e eram militares da Frelimo e foram criar a Resistência Nacional Moçambicana", recorda o repsonsável político. Apesar de ter sido assinado um acordo de paz entre a Renamo e a Frelimo em 1992, após 15 anos de conflito, o país continua hoje em dia a debater-se com a violência. Grupos armados disseminam o terror no extremo norte do território, em Cabo Delgado, há mais de oito anos, o que tem condicionado o próprio processo político do país, constata João Feijó, Investigador do Observatório do Meio Rural. "Esse conflito não tem fim à vista. Já passou por várias fases. Houve aquela fase inicial de expansão que terminou depois no ataque a Palma, numa altura em que a insurgência controlava distritos inteiros de Mocímboa da Praia. (...) Depois, a entrada dos ruandeses significou uma mudança de ciclo. Passaram a empurrar a insurgência de volta para as matas. Conseguiram circunscrevê-los mais ou menos em Macomia, mas não conseguiram derrotá-los. A insurgência consegue-se desdobrar e fazer ataques isolados, obrigando à tropa a dispersar. (...) Aquele conflito armado não terá uma solução militar. Ali é preciso reformas políticas, mas que o governo insiste em negar. E então continuamos a oito, quase oito anos neste conflito, neste impasse", lamenta o estudioso. Embora o país já não esteja em regime de partido único desde os acordos de paz de 1992, as eleições têm sido um momento de crescente tensão. No ano passado, depois das eleições gerais de Outubro de 2024, o país vivenciou largas semanas de incidentes entre populares e forças de ordem que resultaram em mais de 500 mortos, segundo a sociedade civil. Após a tomada de posse do Presidente Daniel Chapo no começo deste ano, encetou-se o chamado « diálogo inclusivo » entre o partido no poder e a oposição. Em paralelo, tem havido contudo, denúncias de perseguições contra quem participou nos protestos pós-eleitorais. Mais recentemente, foram igualmente noticiados casos, denunciados pela sociedade civil, do desaparecimento de activistas ou jornalistas. Questionada há alguns meses sobre a situação do seu país, a activista social Quitéria Guirengane considerou que o país "dorme sobre uma bomba-relógio". "Assusta-me o facto de nós dormirmos por cima de uma bomba relógio, ainda que seja louvável que as partes todas estejam num esforço de diálogo. Também me preocupa que ainda não se sinta esforço para a reconciliação e para a reparação. Nós precisamos de uma justiça restauradora. E quando eu olho, eu sinto um pouco de vergonha e embaraço em relação a todas as famílias que dia e noite ligavam desde Outubro à procura de socorro", considera a militante feminista que ao evocar o processo de diálogo, diz que "criou algum alento sob o ponto de vista de que sairiam das celas os jovens presos políticos. No entanto, continuaram a prender mais. Continua a caça às bruxas nocturna". "Não é este Moçambique que nós sonhamos. Por muito divididos que a gente esteja, precisamos de pensar em construir mais pontes do que fronteiras. Precisamos pensar como nós nos habilitamos, porque nos últimos meses nos tornamos uma cidade excessivamente violenta", conclui a activista que esteve muito presente nestes últimos meses, prestando apoio aos manifestantes presos e seus familiares.

Barry and Abigail discuss Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits and sample Wild Dog – Pale Ale and Wild Dog – Shempa Ale from Tiemann Beer in Lusaka, Zambia; Strawberry Rhubarb from New Glarus Brewing Company in New Glarus, Wisconsin; Coconut Key Lime Pie Drips and Mischievous Grin from Barn Town Brewing in West Des Moines, Iowa; and Gallo / Famosa from Cervecería Centro Americana in Guatemala City, Guatemala.Read about how the Money for Nothing music video came to be, or watch the video.We first sampled New Glarus on our season 4 Christmas episode, Christmas Beers (Straight No Chaser and Gifted Beers).Barry pointed out that Walk of Life references other songs, and Abigail compared it to American Pie by Don McLean.Abigail formally retracted a fun “fact” she had previously shared on the podcast regarding artificial banana flavoring being based on the Gros Michel banana instead of the Cavendish banana, which is the most common banana cultivar eaten today. The 2013 SciShow video where she first learned this false fact has since been edited to remove any reference to this hypothesis but points to this article that explains the hypothesis. This Hank Green video first brought the debunking of this hypothesis to Abigail's attention.We first sampled Barn Town on our season 4 episode Barntown (Phish and Barn Town Brewery).Abigail called Why Worry an “adult lullaby,” similar to Calm Down by Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons. She then entered Why Worry into the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music with a comparison to Little April Shower from Bambi (1942). She also brought up Baby Genius by Eels as having instrumental similarities. Barry mentioned Rain by Hans Zimmer from Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron (2002). The “vibes” in the personnel list likely refers to the vibraphone, which could very well have produced the rain sounds in Why Worry.Abigail asked if Mischievous Grin would count as a “cream tangerine” (we have officially gone zero episodes without mentioning the White Album!).Barry had heard that the three war songs on this album were inspired by the Falklands War between Argentina and the United Kingdom that lasted for a little over two months in 1982. Abigail had always pictured the Vietnam War, partly because of the imagery in Ride Across the River, and partly because Abigail's consumption of war media was heavily influenced by The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien, a novel about the Vietnam War.While discussing The Man's Too Strong, Abigail referenced an in-character speech by comedian and professional Dungeon Master Brennan Lee Mulligan.Up next… Version 2.0 by Garbage, Abigail's annual Phone-a-Friend submission, this time with Carlo “from Canada” Sgro, the namesake of Carlo's Corner!Jingles are by our friend Pete Coe.Visit Anosmia Awareness for more information on Barry's condition.Follow Barry or Abigail on Untappd to see what we're drinking when we're not on mic!Leave us a rating or a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | YouTube | Substack | Website | Email us | Virtual Jukebox | Beer Media Group

In this episode, listen in as Senior Pastor Daniel Kaira engages in a wonderful question and answer session at the Household of Faith church, Lusaka.

Zambian visual artist, STARY MWABA, who grew up in the country's Copperbelt, discusses the enduring environmental and human cost of resource extraction in his home region. He details the history and current reality of the infamous Black Mountain in Kitwe - a century-old toxic slag heap - that is now a site of dangerous, informal mining and re-extraction. Stary explains his unique artistic technique, which literally perforates newspaper headlines to make space for the 'little narratives' of the exploited people and children whose suffering fuels the world's 'green' revolution.His signature method is creating a surface by collecting newspaper stories, stacking them on transparent baking paper' and then perforating the newsprint with minute holes. The idea came from an earlier installation in which he used vegetables and colour to demonstrate how plants absorb water and minerals - a critique of Chinese engagement.The physical act of 'removing words' and perforating the paper is to symbolically 'create space for the little stories' - the marginalised, human narratives. The work is 'painstaking' requiring intense concentration, which Stary describes as a form of 'therapy'.Stary paints from the reverse side of the perforated paper. He imposes the image so the paint literally 'seeps through the holes' and onto the front side, making the portrait a physical breakthrough of the headline.He displays the paintings by suspending them so that the viewer can 'see both sides of the story.'Follow Stary on instagram: starymwabaYou can see some of his works at the 37d Gallery, Lusaka#starymwaba#Zambianartist#copperbelt#coppermining#coblatmining#greenenergy#greeneconomy#evironmentaljustice#acidrain#pollution#zambia#kitwe#blackmountain#africanart#socialcommentary#artivism#untoldstories Hosted on Acast.

Meet William and Lulu Wood, a Zambian couple known for their work in reframing and promoting Zambian cuisine through a contemporary lens, primarily through their platform, The Wood Kitchen.I went to The Wood Kitchen when I was visiting Lusaka a short while ago and had a fabulous time chatting with the couple. This is a family endeavour that focuses on sharing easy fusion recipes, cooking tips, and celebrating Zambia's diverse and delicious foods. As you'll hear, Lulu and William are acutely conscious of the cost of food in today's Zambia - food inflation, although down from July's figure, was in August this year at just under 15%. So affordability is an essential element of their recipes. They use digital media (like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube) to showcase their work.Speaking to William and Lulu, I soon discovered that their main goal is to promote an under-explored cuisine by elevating and showcasing traditional Zambian dishes, which they feel are often underrated on the global stage.Fusion Cooking: They blend traditional Zambian foods from their respective heritage (Tonga and Lozi tribes) with techniques and flavours they've encountered while visiting various countries, creating a unique fusion style.Championing Local Ingredients: They emphasize using local, ethically sourced Zambian ingredients. They grow many of their own vegetables and herbs, a practice they recommend.Food Influencers: They've gained a growing online following and have been recognized as SME change-makers by META for harnessing digital media. They have also represented Zambia internationally in food events.Cultural Preservation: They see food as a powerful tool for celebrating and preserving Zambian heritage, educating both younger generations and wider audiences about their culture through cooking and sharing recipes.I hope you enjoy this show as much as I did making it.

Summary  In this special episode of InContext, Dr. Michael Easley sits down with the late Dr. Voddie Baucham, Jr.—pastor, professor, and cultural apologist—for a wide-ranging conversation about faith, family, and living with conviction in a confused culture. Voddie shares his remarkable journey to Christ, from growing up without the gospel to encountering Christ in college and pursuing a call to ministry. At the time of this conversation, he was serving as Dean of the School of Divinity at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia. With candor and humor, he reflects on raising nine children, the discipline of homeschooling, and the patience and selflessness required in marriage. He also describes how God's providence led his family to Zambia, teaching them to live with “open hands.” The discussion moves into cultural apologetics, where Voddie explains his bold approach to addressing issues like BLM, social justice, marriage, and sexuality—not by chasing headlines but by exposing false foundations and pointing people back to God's design. Though he has since gone home to be with the Lord, this conversation remains a testimony to Voddie's unwavering courage, pastoral heart, and legacy of faithfulness that continues to inspire. Key Takeaways Voddie's journey to Christ began in college, shaping his lifelong ministry calling. Raising nine children taught him discipline, faith, and the need for patience. God called the Bauchams to Zambia through providential open-handed obedience. Cultural apologetics requires exposing false foundations, not chasing headlines. Modern education and parenting philosophies leave generations unable to think critically. Believers are called to steward “what's in their hand” for God's purposes.

In honor of theologian, educator, and best-selling author, Dr. Voddie Baucham, the Lighthouse Faith podcast is re-posting his episode of May 2021.   Dr. Bauacham died suddenly on Thursday, September 25th, 2025, "after suffering an emergency medical incident," according to The Founders website. Baucham may not have been a household name like a Charlie Kirk or TD Jakes,  but he was quite well-known among conservative evangelicals. As a conservative African American pastor who served as Dean of Theology at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia, he was a bit of an enigma to many. He didn't fit the mold of a black Baptist preacher because he dared call out the sins of his own race; sins like rampant fatherlessness and out-of-wedlock births, while criticizing the embrace of Critical Race Theory. But he was also not totally touted by white Christians either, perhaps for fear of backlash or being labeled racist. But Baucham, first and foremost, was devoted to Jesus Christ. And that is how he wanted to be remembered.    On this episode of Lighthouse Faith, Baucham talks about his then-new book,  "Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism's Looming Catastrophe".  It's a reminder of the tumult of the 2020 COVID shutdown and the rioting protests in the wake of the George Floyd murder. Baucham's was a voice that defied the prevailing political winds, but one that, like Charlie Kirk, spoke using faith and reason. Listen and see if you agree or not.  Learn more about your ad choices.

It's Friday, September 26th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Chinese Communist court upholds prison sentence of 10 Christians On September 11, a court in the Inner Mongolian region of North China upheld a ruling that sentenced 10 Christians to prison for distributing legally published Bibles, asserting that their actions equated to an illegal business operation, reports International Christian Concern. The believers were arrested back in 2021 for purchasing legally published Bibles and reselling them at a significantly lower price as a means of evangelism. Although the Bibles were published legally, the court deemed the distribution of them illegal because the house church that the distributors belonged to was not officially registered with the Communists. Additionally, the church refused to join the government-controlled Three-Self Patriotic Movement church. Trump now wants Russia to return all captured Ukraine territory After campaigning on ending the Russia-Ukraine war, President Donald Trump had repeatedly stated any negotiations to end the war will likely include Ukraine ceding captured territory to Russia, reports American Family Radio News. However, there's now been an about-face, a big one, that sounds like Trump now supports a military counter-offensive by Ukraine.  This week, President Trump stated that Ukraine, with help from NATO and the European Union, can retake all territory it has lost to Russia and restore Ukraine to its “original form.” Russian President Vladimir Putin has ignored Trump's efforts to bring peace to the region even after face-to-face talks in Alaska earlier this summer. Mark Montgomery, a former rear admiral, believes that Putin has embarrassed and irritated Trump. Listen to this soundbite from Washington Watch with Tony Perkins. MONTGOMERY: “President Trump was disrespected by President Putin. After every meeting, Putin would go back to Russia and would immediately engage in significant hypersonic missile strikes on civilian personnel in Ukraine, and as well as engaging in military kinetic actions along the front line, ignoring the president's request for Vladimir to stop, ignoring the president's request to come to the negotiating table. “I think President Trump gave President Putin all the wiggle room he could. And then he had enough.” Former FBI Director James Comey indicted on federal charges Federal prosecutors on Thursday announced they had won an indictment of former FBI Director James Comey in federal courts, reports The Epoch Times. Comey was indicted by a grand jury in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on charges of making a false statement and obstruction in a criminal case. In a post on X, Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote, “No one is above the law. Today's indictment reflects this Department of Justice's commitment to holding those who abuse positions of power accountable for misleading the American people. We will follow the facts in this case.” Panic seizes Pentagon over Hegseth's meeting of all generals Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has ordered all top U.S. military commanders, worldwide, to convene at the Quantico, Virginia Marine Corps Base next week for a no-notice meeting with no published agenda. To call this unprecedented might be an understatement. The order covers about 800 general officers and admirals, and each of the attendees is directed to bring their senior enlisted adviser with them, reports RedState.com. It's also very likely that Hegseth will want to discuss the epidemic of non-compliance and malicious compliance wreaking havoc on the policies he and his team are attempting to put into place. For instance, trans members of the military are still being promoted even though they have been ordered discharged. DEI training continues despite Hegseth's order banning such nonsense. The Judge Advocate General Corps, the stronghold of everything leftist in all services, survived an early decapitation attack and roared back more woke and more disloyal and vindictive than ever. They openly discuss how to circumvent Department of War directives and frequently refer to their commanders who are following lawful orders from the Secretary of War as "nazis" and "war criminals." Man who shot at ICE Dallas facility sought to bring terror The 29-year-old man, Joshua Jahn, who opened fire on a Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility from a nearby roof on September 24th left behind handwritten notes at his home in Oklahoma that shared a motive for his attack – to terrorize ICE employees, reports Fox4News.com. He killed one detainee, and injured two other detainees before taking his own life. According to FBI Director Kash Patel, Jahn downloaded a document titled "Dallas County Office of Homeland Security & Emergency Management," which contained a list of Department of Homeland Security facilities. He also conducted multiple searches of ballistics and the "Charlie Kirk Shot Video" between September 23 and September 24. Jahn allegedly left handwritten notes behind that read in part, "Hopefully, this will give ICE agents real terror, to think, ‘Is there a sniper with [armor piercing] rounds on that roof?'" At a press conference, FBI agent-in-charge Joseph Rothrock said, "Jahn specifically intended to kill ICE agents. He fired at transport vehicles carrying ICE personnel, federal agents, and detainees. He also fired multiple shots into the windows of the office building, where numerous ICE employees do their jobs every day." The Department of Homeland Security is also increasing security at all ICE facilities across America. Christian leader Voddie Baucham died at 56 And finally, Voddie Baucham, an American pastor, author, and educator, died yesterday at the age of 56. TimesNowNews.com reports that Baucham had dealt with serious health issues in the past. In February 2021, he experienced “full-blown heart failure.” The following month, he underwent successful heart surgery. Later, doctors found another blockage, which led to a quadruple bypass surgery. On Facebook, his ministry wrote, “We are saddened to inform friends that our dear brother, Voddie Baucham, Jr., has left the land of the dying and entered the land of the living. Earlier today, after suffering an emergency medical incident, he entered into his rest and the immediate presence of the Savior whom he loved, trusted, and served since he was converted as a college student. Please pray for Bridget, their [nine] children, and [three] grandchildren.” Indeed, I urge you to send a sympathy card to Bridget Baucham, c/o Voddie Baucham Ministries,1020 S. Ferdon, Crestview, FL 32536. Voddie served for nine years as Dean of Theology at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia and was the Founding President of Founders Seminary in Cape Coral, Florida. Known for his passionate preaching, teachings on faith, and books on Christian living, Baucham left a deep mark on the Evangelical community. His books included Family Driven Faith: Doing What It Takes to Raise Sons and Daughters Who Walk with God, Family Shepherds: Calling and Equipping Men to Lead Their Homes, and Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism's Looming Catastrophe. Listen to Voddie Baucham explain how Ephesians 6:1 has been turned upside down by the world. BAUCHAM: “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. We've turned this on its head. “First of all, your children are not yours. ‘Children, obey the state, for this is right.' We've even moved from that. “'Children obey your feelings, for this is right.' And then on top of that. We say, ‘Parents, obey your children's feelings, for this is right.' So, if Johnny comes to you and says that Johnny is now Susie, it is your job not to instruct Johnny that he's not Susie, but to instruct Susie that you affirm her as Susie. That's your job. “Your job is to obey, to submit to what it is that your child says that he or she is. Sounds like the same twisted logic of the evangelical feminist.” Psalm 116:15 says, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.” Watch Voddie's last talk in which he addressed Charlie Kirk's death at New St. Andrews College.

Le Mpox continue de se propager de manière inquiétante en Afrique. En 2025, les cas ont dépassé ceux de 2024. Ce sont plus de 21 000 cas de Mpox qui sont détectés dans treize pays africains, et cela risque de doubler d'ici la fin de l'année. Les coupes des aides en provenance des États-Unis et d'Europe ont fragilisé les systèmes de santé. Au total, 700 000 doses de vaccin ont été administrées, mais les stocks sont insuffisants. La Sierra Leone représente 41% des infections récentes, et la RDC est aussi en première ligne avec 24 000 cas détectés depuis début 2024. On en parle ce matin avec notre Grand invité Afrique : Jean Kaseya, directeur de l'Africa CDC (les centres africains de contrôle et de prévention des maladies). RFI : Avec les coupes budgétaires de l'aide occidentale, est-ce que vous avez déjà mesuré un impact direct sur la réponse aux épidémies ? Jean Kaseya : Je suis très clair là-dessus. Ces coupes peuvent ou sont en train d'accélérer une possible pandémie venant d'Afrique. Le nombre d'épidémies ne fait qu'augmenter d'une année à l'autre. Nous avons toujours ces problèmes d'accès aux médicaments et aux vaccins. Et ça, ce sont des conditions réunies en plus des changements climatiques, en plus de l'insécurité, pour déclencher une pandémie. Mais je sens partout, dans tous les pays où je passe, un réveil. J'étais à Lusaka, en Zambie, il y a quatre jours. Il y a deux jours, j'étais à Luanda et maintenant, je suis à Abidjan. Je vois comment les pays se mobilisent pour trouver des ressources internes et c'est partout en Afrique le cas. Justement, est-ce que ces pays arrivent à trouver des fonds ? Je vais vous donner l'exemple de la RDC où j'ai eu à rencontrer le président Tshisekedi, qui m'a informé que le pays a décidé de mettre en place une taxe de 2 % sur tous les produits importés. En plus de cela, ils ont mis une taxe sur les salaires de toutes les personnes qui travaillent de 2,5 %. Au total, cela va donner autour de 1,5 milliard de dollars additionnels chaque année. Ça, ce sont des ressources concrètes. Le président Mahama me parlait d'un programme qu'on appelle Mahama Cares Ghana. Les pays africains avancent dans la réalité. À lire aussiÉpidémie de mpox: malgré une baisse constatée en Afrique, la vigilance reste de mise En Sierra Leone, le testing est à 100 % et le pays semble se distinguer par une gestion plus efficace du Mpox ? C'est d'abord un grand effort au niveau communautaire pour mobiliser les relais communautaires. C'est former les agents de santé par rapport à la surveillance. C'est mettre en place la vaccination qu'il faut. C'est détecter la comorbidité, ça peut être le VIH ou d'autres maladies. C'est aujourd'hui l'occasion de dire et de tordre le cou à tous ceux-là qui pensent que les Africains n'aiment pas les vaccins. Ce n'est pas vrai. Aujourd'hui, dans la plupart des pays, le taux de testing est de 100 % puisque les gens acceptent de se faire tester pour savoir s'ils sont malades. Là où le vaccin est disponible, le taux de couverture est très élevé. On parle beaucoup d'un sous-groupe du virus appelé le clade 1b, réputé plus mortel : 2000 décès enregistrés depuis 2024. Qu'est-ce qui distingue cette souche des précédentes ? Nous avons tout le temps des mutations qui se font, et nous avons maintenant des combinaisons différentes dans un même endroit au Libéria, où on a eu le clade 2a et 2b au même moment. Nous avons par exemple la RDC où nous avons eu la combinaison de ces différents clades. Ce sont toutes ces combinaisons qui font qu'on ne sait pas la bombe qui peut sortir demain. À lire aussiGuinée: l'épidémie de mpox s'étend dans le pays, un an après son apparition Cet été, le CDC Africa a dévoilé son premier cadre stratégique climat et santé, pourquoi et pour quoi faire ? 70 % des épidémies que nous avons en Afrique sont ce qu'on appelle les épidémies zoonotiques. Donc ça vient de l'animal vers l'homme, interchangeables. Nous avons vu que c'est le changement climatique qui est à la base de tout cela. En plus, nous avons le choléra. Ce choléra est dû principalement aux effets liés aux inondations et à d'autres changements climatiques. Donc voilà pourquoi nous avons décidé de lancer ce plan qui lie le climat et la santé pour mieux combattre les épidémies. Justement, le choléra connaît une recrudescence majeure. Au Soudan, Alima [The Alliance for International Medical Action] estime que si rien n'est fait, la maladie pourrait tuer plus que les armes… Entre 2022 à 2024, il y a eu doublement des cas. On est passé de 104 000 cas à 254 000 cas. Sachant que la saison des pluies va commencer dans quelques jours, je m'attends à ce que si ça continue comme ça, nous puissions avoir plus de 300 000 cas. De janvier à août, nous avons 4900 décès, alors que toute l'année 2024, on n'a eu que 4700 décès. Donc, ça signifie que le choléra actuellement devient un problème de santé publique majeur que nous devons arrêter. Comment faites-vous pour lutter contre les deux épidémies de Mpox et de choléra en même temps, sans diluer les moyens et l'attention ? Malheureusement, nous n'avons pas que ces deux épidémies. Nous en avons d'autres. Nous avons la rougeole, des cas d'Ebola, de Marburg et d'autres épidémies encore. En moyenne, nous avons une nouvelle épidémie par jour et ça, ça fait beaucoup pour nous.

Over the past week, sharply contrasting images of Chinese engagement in Africa surfaced online. Anger erupted on social media over the release of yet another violent video that shows Congolese soldiers brutally beating local miners purportedly at the behest of Chinese nationals watching in the background. A controversial hour-long documentary by one of Zambia's leading newspapers also sparked a lot of discussion over the labor and environmental records of Chinese mining companies in the country. The Chinese embassy in Lusaka denounced the program as "biased" and containing "hidden motives." Meanwhile, in China, a 15-second teaser of a new blockbuster movie also dropped this week that looks like it's set in a fictitious North African country, while popular Chinese travel vlogger Zhang Jun released a visually stunning 2.5-hour-long documentary on the Congolese fashion scene known as "La Sape." Eric, Géraud & Cobus discuss these various clips and shows that emerged this week and what they reveal about the evolution of China-Africa media narratives. SHOW NOTES: Justicia ABSL: Violent beating of Congolese miners by FARDC soldiers News Diggers: China: The Good, the Bad and the Dangerous Movie Trailer: 用武之地/The Point of No Return The Fashion Bible: Congo's “La Sape” Fashion Culture Through the Unlikely Lens of a Chinese Vlogger JOIN THE DISCUSSION: X: @ChinaGSProject | @eric_olander | @stadenesque | @christiangeraud Facebook: www.facebook.com/ChinaAfricaProject YouTube: www.youtube.com/@ChinaGlobalSouth Now on Bluesky!

Dans le supplément de ce dimanche, en première partie, direction le Mozambique avec une révolution à l'épreuve du temps, le mouvement qui a fait basculer le pays de l'ère coloniale à l'indépendance est de plus en plus contesté. 1975-2025, le temps a passé. Il y a 50 ans, le Frelimo prenait le pouvoir. Après les accords de Lusaka qui ont conclu la guerre coloniale avec les Portugais, cela fera donc un demi siècle mercredi prochain. Le Frelimo est toujours là mais avec des soubresauts...  En deuxième partie, nous retrouvons Laurence Théault qui a enquêté en France sur la drogue dans les villes moyennes et le monde rural, et comment on vient en aide à ces usagers de plus en plus nombreux.  À partir du 23/6, nous consacrons une série de 4 reportages dédiés à la drogue. Nous irons en Sierra Leone, aux États-Unis, à Marseille et remonterons la route africaine de la cocaïne, cela à l'occasion de la journée internationale contre l'abus et le trafic de drogue, journée spéciale également sur RFI du matin au soir, jeudi 26 juin 2025.   Mozambique : la promesse trahie de l'Indépendance Le 25 juin 2025, le Mozambique célèbrera le cinquantième anniversaire de son indépendance. La guerre de libération du pays a duré 10 ans pendant lesquels la guérilla du Frelimo, le Front de libération du Mozambique, a affronté le colon portugais. Après la signature des accords de Lusaka, le 25 septembre 1974, et six mois de transition, le Frelimo prend le pouvoir le 25 juin 1975. Depuis lors, il ne l'a jamais quitté. Fin 2024, le pays a pourtant été secoué par une violente crise post-électorale, réprimée dans le sang. Le Frelimo est de plus en plus contesté. Un Grand Reportage de Gaëlle Laleix qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix.   Drogue à Chateauroux : approcher pour soigner  Longtemps cantonnés aux mégapoles et aux banlieues urbaines, les réseaux de trafic de stupéfiants n'en finissent plus d'étendre leur emprise vers les villes moyennes et les campagnes françaises. En province, en région, dans les territoires, en zone rurale. Si les produits stupéfiants sont les mêmes qu'ailleurs : héroïne, cocaïne, drogues de synthèse, cannabis, les structures spécialisées d'aide aux usagers y sont rares.  Dans le centre de la France, Châteauroux – 43 000 habitants, à 270 kilomètres de Paris – un centre d'accueil et d'accompagnement y vient en aide aux usagers, sur place, mais également par des tournées en camion pour toucher les consommateurs les plus éloignés en milieu rural. Un Grand reportage de Laurence Théault qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix.

Último episódio. Jorge Jardim engana todos, até a própria família, e consegue fugir da embaixada onde estava refugiado em Lisboa sem que ninguém se aperceba de nada. Impedido de voltar a Portugal, Jardim não desiste do Programa de Lusaka com vista à independência de Moçambique. O território vai mesmo tornar-se independente, com um acordo assinado em Lusaka, mas o engenheiro Jardim é afastado do processo: “passou a ser alguém que era contagioso”. Desde Espanha e com a ajuda de um conhecido fadista, Jorge Jardim vai tentar vingar-se dos homens que entregaram Moçambique diretamente à FRELIMO e coordenar ataques contra a extrema-esquerda em Portugal. Cada vez mais isolado, a morte de Jardim vai estar envolta num mistério que nunca poderá ser resolvido.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In February, a tailings dam at a Chinese-owned mine in Zambia collapsed, releasing 50 million liters of acid waste into the Kafue River—a critical water source for millions. The spill sparked national outrage and raised urgent questions about environmental oversight, China's expanding role in Africa's mining sector, and Zambia's ability to safeguard its natural resources. Freeman Chiwele Mubanga, head of research at the Centre for Environmental Justice in Lusaka is part of a growing civil society movement demanding accountability from both the Chinese mining company and the Zambian government. Freeman speaks with Géraud and CGSP's new Transitional Minerals Editor, Obert Bore, about the fallout from the disaster and what it reveals about the environmental track record of Chinese mining operations across the continent.

John 17.20-23Pastor Mwindula Mbewe of Hillview Baptist Church in Lusaka, Zambia blessed us with a powerful message about God's call for His church to be "one." This unity stems from sharing in Christ's glory, and while we want this unity in the church...we also very much want glory for ourselves. Our sinful desires look for ways to create distinctions and division, the very opposite of the type of unity God calls us to. The glory God gives, through His Son, levels the field and draws us into loving community where we see no differences between us and our brothers and sisters.

In today's episode, we discuss this year's Hospitality and Tourism Education Summit, set to take place from April 7-9, 2025, in Lusaka, Zambia. My guest, Mrs. Anne Kaoma-Sibanda, Executive Director of the Zambia Institute of Tourism and Hospitality Studies, reflects on the successes of last year's summit and highlights the new features of this year's event. Anne is confident that the summit will address skills gaps and foster stronger collaboration within the industry.

Dr. Conrad Mbewe,founding chancellor of African Christian University &Pastor of Kabwata Baptist Church of Lusaka, Zambia, & Dr. Joe Jacowitz,founder of FirstLove Ministries & Pastor of Christ BibleChurch of Pleasanton, CA, who will address: “The MINISTER AS SHEPHERD”

In this illuminating episode of Didaché, Justin Peters interviews renowned African pastor Conrad Mbewe about the critical Publishing for Africa initiative. Mbewe, who has shepherded Kabwata Baptist Church in Lusaka, Zambia, for 37 years, shares his vision for providing affordable, doctrinally sound literature to African Christians. Through their discussion, Peters and Mbewe unpack the urgent need for theological resources in Africa, where many believers lack access to fundamental biblical teaching. The conversation highlights how the project has evolved since receiving initial support and emphasizes the ongoing mission to combat theological misconceptions across the continent.Publish for Africa➡️ Click here to find all of Justin's essential links.
