Pierre Thiam is a renowned chef, restaurant owner, cookbook author, and co-founder of Yolélé – a company working to introduce the world to fonio, an ancient West African grain built for climate change.But it hasn't been all sunshine and good harvests for Pierre. In fact, he was robbed just days after he first arrived in New York City from Senegal.It was 1989, and he had just traveled to the U.S. to study chemistry and physics. This chance incident, however, set Pierre's life on an entirely different course.This week on How I Built This Lab, Pierre talks with Guy about his company's work circulating fonio, a nutrient-dense and drought-resistant food source. Pierre also shares how he overcame cultural norms to embrace his cooking career, and his take on the connection between colonization and the vulnerability of our global food systems.This episode was produced by Katherine Sypher and edited by John Isabella, with music by Ramtin Arablouei.

Joined today by former NBA center and current player for Nanterre 92 of the LNB Pro A, Hamady N'Diaye. Hamady acts as my tour guide for my upcoming trip to Senegal and talks about their love of futbol, what food I need to eat, and the sights I can't miss.  He talks about being a geeky and shy kid, not being into sports and why trying to impress girls led him to the basketball court. We chat about leaving his family at 16 to pursue an education and a career in basketball in the states, landing in New Jersey and seeing snow for the first time then venturing out to California. He shares his recruiting trips, why he choose Rutgers over Miami and being defensive player of the year. Hamady takes us to the 2010 nba draft, watching his dreams come true with his friends and getting drafted by the Timberwolves.  He talks about playing with John Wall, Boogie Cousins and his welcome to the nba moment against Dwight Howard.  We hear why Hamady chooses to play in a new country almost every year, playing in the Philippines and hanging out with Manny Pacquiao.  Hamady tells us about the pride of playing for Senegal in 2013 and 2014, how he wants to inspire a younger generation and playing in France today.  All this plus meeting Dikembe mutumbo for the first time, being in NBA2K and much more!!

Abi McNeil talks to Vhils as he works on his latest project – a 31 metre long mural for the Paris headquarters of Unesco.

Interview with Segun Lawson, CEO of Thor Explorations Ltd (LSE:THX)Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/thor-explorations-thx-value-all-round-production-exploration-and-income-3005Recording date: 13th September 2023Thor Explorations is an emerging senior gold producer focused on acquiring, exploring, and developing gold projects located in West Africa. With an operating mine generating cash flow in Nigeria, a large-scale development project advancing in Senegal, and early-stage lithium exploration underway in Nigeria, Thor is leveraging its operational expertise and strategic relationships to unlock the vast mineral wealth across the region.Thor's flagship asset is the high-grade Segilola open pit gold mine, located in the prolific Osun Gold Belt in southwestern Nigeria. Having commenced production in 2021, Segilola forms the cornerstone asset in Thor's portfolio, producing 43,000 ounces of gold in the first half of 2022.With mining transitioning into higher grade zones, Thor has revised full year 2022 production guidance to a sustainable 85,000 ounces. The long-term goal is to leverage Segilola's central processing infrastructure to consolidate regional resources, extending mine life beyond the current 12-year outlook.Systematic exploration efforts targeting satellite deposits within trucking distance of the Segilola mill have delivered promising results. Thor is also assessing opportunities to acquire advanced projects from junior explorers to bolster growth.The most significant near-term growth driver is Thor's Douta Gold Project in southeastern Senegal's highly productive Kéniéba Inlier gold belt. With already defined resources of 1.78 million ounces of gold, Douta offers Thor scale potential in a jurisdiction with an established history of gold mining operations.Following a recently completed 15,000-meter drilling campaign aimed at upgrading resources and expanding mineralization, Thor is completing a feasibility study positioning Douta to become its second operating mine. With estimated average annual production above 100,000 ounces, Douta could potentially double Thor's total gold output over the next few years.Leveraging its first-mover advantage and strong government relationships in Nigeria, Thor has also acquired an extensive portfolio of high-grade lithium pegmatite occurrences exhibiting strong continuity in surface outcrops and shallow drilling intercepts.Through a separate corporate entity, Thor has commenced a 5,000-meter maiden drilling program to delineate resources on its core targets. With lithium demand forecast to grow exponentially to support electric vehicle and battery markets, successful exploration could position Thor to capitalize on surging lithium prices.Thor Explorations is led by a board and management team with decades of experience successfully exploring, developing, and operating mines across Africa. Having already built Segilola on time and budget, this seasoned team is focused on delivering value for shareholders by executing on a clear growth strategy for its asset portfolio.Trading at an attractive valuation relative to peers, and with a fully funded plan to substantially grow production, Thor offers investors an opportunity to gain exposure to high-upside gold and lithium assets in mining-friendly African jurisdictions. As Thor systematically unlocks value across its portfolio, shares in the company offer an appealing risk/reward proposition.—View Thor Explorations' Company Profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/thor-explorations-ltdSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

L'Unione europea ha deciso di agire contro la cosiddetta «fast fashion»: capi creati in pochissimo tempo a spese dell'ambiente e dei lavoratori a basso costo, con materiali scadenti che si rovinano in fretta, per poi finire bruciati o in discariche di Paesi come Kenya, Ghana e Senegal.

More than 60 people are currently feared lost at sea after trying to escape Senegal by boat for a better life in Europe. According to the UN, Africa accounts for only 14 percent of the global migrant population. Most Africans also migrate internally but, due to the recent tragedy from Senegal, we decided to focus on those - both skilled and unskilled - who want to leave the continent for elsewhere. Host James Reynolds and his colleague Lukwesa Burak hear from men and women across four countries in Africa to discover the many reasons why they want to leave. We also hear from two unemployed mothers, one of whom is prepared to temporarily leave her young child with relatives in order to secure her own and her daughter's future.

Carl Ernst's and Mbaye Lo's new book I Cannot Write My Life: Islam, Arabic, and Slavery in Omar Ibn Said's America (UNC Press, 2023) is a fascinating and rivetting book that offers the most authoritative account to date of the life and Arabic writings of Omar Ibn Said, a scholar from what is today Senegal who was sold to slavery in the early 19th century and brought to Southern US. Moreover, this path paving book offers critical correctives to dominant perceptions of Said's remarkable life narrative. Rather than understand Omar Ibn Said as a Muslim slave who had made peace with his new life in the US or had even converted to Christianity, Ernst and Lo demonstrate the deep imprints of Islam and Islamicate knowledge traditions in Omar Ibn Said's varied writings such as his reflections on his life and his letters. This book, written in lyrical and engaging prose, makes available for the first time comprehensive translations of Omar Ibn Said's Arabic writings into English. It also makes a compelling and convincing case for taking seriously Arabic texts from Africa as part of world literature.
