A factory owner in Ashulia, Bangladesh, wanted to build a mosque for his workers. He gave the commission to a Bangladeshi architect. Not an imported name. Not a foreign firm. A local architect who understood the land, the climate, and the culture she was building for.
In 2025, Time Magazine named it one of the greatest places in the world, the first Bangladeshi building to ever appear on that list.
The entire structure is one material. One colour. Pink-pigmented concrete, perforated with small rectangular voids that filter light into the prayer hall the way hanging lanterns did in old mosques. A dome floats unsupported over the circular prayer space. The high plinth references the Bhiti, the earthen mound that Bangladeshi homes have been built upon for centuries in the deltaic floodplain. The building knows where it comes from because the architect did.
Across Africa, clients with the same resources make a different call. Foreign firms. Imported aesthetics. Buildings that could exist anywhere. The brief gets fulfilled. The opportunity gets wasted.
Trusting a local architect with his mother’s name just made global history. That should mean something to us.

And while she was at Harvard, she essentially ghostwrote Alan Dershowitz's "hoax" book, "The Case for Israel", a tome filled with plagiarism and extreme pro-Israel propaganda.
That’s me in the top left-hand corner. Friends and family send it to me when it randomly appears on their timeline. It’s just funny at this point.I want to gather each person in this meme to have a roundtable discussion about becoming a right wing talking point. Social media help
Let me explain what just happened 👇
5 minutes before the President announced a halt to attacks on Iran… someone placed a $1.5 BILLION bet on stocks going up and dumped $192 million in oil.
5 minutes…
These trades were 4 to 6 times larger than anything else in the entire market. Whoever did this wasn’t guessing. You don’t risk $1.5 billion on a hunch.
There was zero public indication this announcement was coming. No leaks. No press. Nothing. The only people who knew were in the room when the decision was made.
Someone in that room picked up a phone.
And within minutes they made more money than most Americans will earn in a thousand lifetimes. In a single trade. On a war that cost you $4+ a gallon gas and $16 billion in tax dollars.
American citizens funded this war. Politicians are profiting from it.
This is not the first time. Every major announcement from this administration has had massive suspicious trades right before it dropped. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. War decisions.
This is the most blatant insider trading operation in the history of American politics. It’s not even close. And it’s happening over and over in broad daylight.
You would go to federal prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. These people are front running war decisions with billion dollar bets and nobody will ever ask a single question.
Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. By tomorrow this will be buried under the next satisfying headline. Just like last time. And the time before that.
The game is rigged. And they’re not even trying to hide it anymore…
They didn’t even do all this for Grenfell.
This is puppetry. Ambulances that were due to be replaced are now being replaced by our taxes. Despite them not being NHS ambulances just ones that solely serve their community.
No other race/religion has its own police & ambulances.
A group of jews confronted the Aljazeera crew in Golders Green.
Called them monkeys and dogs.
Then told police they felt unsafe and alleged the news would go to 'terrorists'.
The officer's reply: 'I understand'
Not the West Bank. This is Britain.
The IDF sent a shipment of boxes to Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza
Each box contained a SKULL from a Palestinian
They delivered dead bodies of women with their organs removed
If Hamas had done this to a SINGLE Israeli, there’d be a media storm
SO WHERE THE HELL ARE THE MEDIA NOW?!
@JermainJackman Feel like the BBC intentionally left this to pit two minority groups against each other and fuel anti-Black racism.
They had two hours to cut out the slur, but they cut out the solidarity with Palestinians instead.
All in all unsurprising considering the BBC and who they are
Professor Nick Maynard testimony as a volunteer surgeon at Nasser Hospital on how Israeli soldiers specifically targets and kills Palestinian children as a game and how baby formula has been confiscated at Israeli military checkpoints
