This week @thecontinent_ threw all our normal rules out the window to publish this stunning 6000-word long form article on the scarcely believable rise and fall of Mike Sonko, Nairobi’s Matatu King, by @IsaacOtidiAmuke. What a read. (Illustration by the brilliant @nzilani)
On Thursday, we will experience the first full moon of 2021. We are offering a special discounted gift set with the purchase of one of our lunar calendars: receive a gorgeous notebook designed by @_kulula, paired with newspaper pencils.

@ActionAid International's General Assembly completed its 1st ever virtual AGM today. It was intense, interesting and productive. My highlight: the inspiration and challenge imparted by Medha Patkar, renowned social activist.
Dhanyabaad Medha tai ji 🙏
Zindabad ✊🏼!

Our bodies are similar in some ways and different in other ways and they are all beautiful. Instead of bullying others for having different body types, we should appreciate and celebrate the diversity of our bodies. #BodyPolitics#FreeOurBodies
Our bodies are vessels which allow us to experience life in all its dimensions. When we love our bodies, our bodies flourish and give us life. #BodyPolitics
We choose to respect and care for our bodies. Our bodies belong to us and nature has given us the responsibility to take care of them. How do you care for your body? #BodyPolitics
Patriarchy reduces women to simply bodies and determines which bodies are valuable and worthy of existing in society. We reject that notion. We are more than our bodies. We are mind, spirit and soul. We each deserve to be here no what matter our body looks like. #BodyPolitics
