Textile Waste Facts:
- Only 15% of consumer used clothing is recycled
- Synthetic clothing may take hundreds of years to decompose
- Landfill dumping alone generates leach toxic chemicals and dyes which go into our soil and water.

As world leaders arrive for the G20, the women of South Africa welcomes them with a truth our government can no longer bury.
Despite one million signatures demanding that Gender-Based Violence and Femicide be declared a National Disaster, nothing has been done.
So we created the only welcome message brave enough to say what our government won’t.
A country where, because of government inaction, the safest place for a woman… is a casket.
Help us make this impossible to ignore. Share it everywhere. #UnburyTheTruth #womenforchange #g20 #DeclareGBVFANationalDisaster #WomenShutdown

WOMAN FOUND DEAD INSIDE RUBBISH BIN IN SOWETO
The community of Zone 3, Meadowlands was left in shock on Tuesday, 11 November 2025, after the gruesome discovery of 39-year-old Lebohang Sikwane’s body found inside a rubbish bin near Masekhene Higher Primary School.
According to witnesses, blood stains led community members and police to a nearby house, where a suspect was swiftly arrested on the same street. Sikwane’s body showed a fresh wound on her forehead, and it appeared she had been dragged to the spot using the bin.
Despite her battered appearance making identification difficult, she was later recognized by a local resident. Sikwane leaves behind three children.
URGENT APPEAL FOR HELP – TONDERAI MAUCHAZA (16)
We kindly appeal to your hearts to help my brother Tonderai Mauchaza a 16-year-old boy suffering from a rare and painful condition called Xeroderma Pigmentosum (XP) a disorder that makes him extremely sensitive to sunlight and causes the development of tumors on his face and head.
Tonderai urgently needs:
- Blood laboratory tests
- A CT scan and X-ray
- Surgery to remove the tumors
Unfortunately Tonderai lives under difficult circumstances. He is under the care of my Grandmother who is not working and iam also trying my best to help him with piece jobs that i do daily but it is not enough since the same money from the piece jobs caters for food and other basics so affording the medical costs which he needs urgently is difficult.
We are kindly reaching out to the public, friends, and well-wishers for financial assistance so that my brother can access the treatment he so desperately needs.
Any amount you can give will make a big difference.
I kindly ask you all to come together and give my brother Tonderai hope and a chance to live a healthier life.
Please Note: (I have insert a less graphic picture of him. For those who may wish to see how he is looking now. You may contact me on the number below so you get to see him through whatsapp)
Thank you and God bless you all🙏🏼

1.) Notice how Trump never attacks white immigrants like Melania’s family? Only Black and Muslim ones. That’s not patriotism—it’s racism.
2.) Omar came here legally as a refugee, became a citizen, and now serves in Congress. Trump’s immigrant wife’s parents got in through chain migration—the very thing he rants against.
3.) The “marry her brother” smear has been debunked dozens of times. The fact Trump keeps repeating it shows how racism and lies are his only playbook.

Naming 136 frog species and 407 reptile species in nine South African cultures is no small task. 🐸
Fortunate Mafeta Phaka, Senior Postdoctoral Researcher of herptile-human interactions at North-West University, has conducted the first comprehensive analysis of Indigenous naming and classification for these species.
His work bridges science and heritage, giving each species a name in Afrikaans, Setswana, isiZulu, isiXhosa, Sesotho, and more. This Heritage Month, we celebrate the richness of our biodiversity and the languages that bring it to life.

When Tyla said she is not Black but Coloured, she was not speaking into the American conversation about race at all. She was speaking in the language of her own country, shaped by its own history. Yet her words detonated in America as though they had been aimed there. This is what happens when a nation has spent a century convincing the world that its definitions are the only ones that matter.
America’s greatest export has never been war. It has never been democracy. It has never been freedom. America’s greatest export is the dream of itself.
It is not that the films are inherently better. It is not that the music contains some mystical note absent elsewhere. What America has, and what it has always had, is money, reach, and a machinery built to make its image the centre of the world.
This was not accidental. It was policy. It was the soft arm of empire. To project yourself outward until your face is the first one people recognise in the mirror.
And so the American way of life became the default. Other cultures were filed into two neat drawers: savage if they challenged the story, exotic if they could be sold back to you.
If you are Black, your first cinematic self was likely African American, the rapper, the sitcom character, the hero of a Spike Lee joint. If you are white in Europe or Australia, it was the white faces of American sitcoms and stadium tours. Whoever you were, your first image of yourself came with an American accent.
Over time, Americans began to believe the story they had written. When you grow up in the country that built itself into the cultural Mecca, it is easy to think you are the best simply because you are on top. You forget, or never know, that the game was fixed long before you played it.
But the monopoly is breaking. Nigeria’s Nollywood now speaks across oceans. South Korean dramas leap borders. India’s Bollywood never needed permission to fill theatres. Spanish thrillers keep strangers awake at night. Slumdog Millionaire, Squid Game, Money Heist, Shōgun — all aimed partly at the American market because that is where the money is, but no longer about America.
And here is the thing. Black Americans, who fought to be seen in their own country, became the global face of Blackness. That is a remarkable achievement. It was also made possible by the same system that excluded everyone else. Now Africans, Caribbeans, and Afro-Latins tell their own stories without making room for American centrality, and the absence is noticed.
We grew up watching you. You did not grow up watching us. And now the internet has levelled the ground just enough for others to speak without hesitation. Tyla’s words land differently because the world no longer accepts America as the only arbiter of meaning.
America’s greatest export was never its art. It was the power to decide which art, and which identities, the world would see. That power is no longer yours alone. There is both justice and loss in that.
@Joe__Bassey I see people asking for confirmation in the comments. Who asked for proof of the Boer's being killed before they were believed? Black people have to scream and shout about how we're treated yet white people can lie about us and be believed at face value. This needs to stop!

Burberry burned $36,500,000 of clothes in one year.
Not because they couldn't sell them.
Because they didn't want YOU to have them.
