Any #Geography teachers in Derry and hinterland able to help in an historic mapping project? #missingbits #knowyourcity #saveourheritage #nodeadlines #iwtn
Today was my first time at the @TheBookBunk.
The work they are doing is tremendous. I used to secretly admire it from a far tbh.
Thank you for trusting me with your program & thanks to everyone who blessed the space with their presence.

We must use the colonizer's language to decolonize ourselves~ @itsamaddworld #missingbits @TheBookBunk
Speaking in our local language can be very powerful in understanding our issues~ StoneFace #missingbits #worlddayforculturaldiversity
.@itsamaddworld shares his work during the Moi regime and how political commentary has changed. #missingbits #worlddayforculturaldiversity
Great insight by @SitawaNamwalie on South Africa colonization & how this reflects on the xenophobia issue in the country. The country went through 300+ year of normal colonization & 50 years of apartheid regime. #Missingbits #worlddayforculturaldiversity @TheBookBunk
On this #WorldDayforCulturalDiversity, we are participating at the @TheBookBunk #missingbits event happening at Eastlands library. Panel discussion with @SitawaNamwalie, wangui @itsamaddworld
This is how we're spending this Saturday.
Currently watching a film - Ark of light and shadows, which captures the first images of wildlife in Kenya.
Come on over.

And as Baraza we feel that the work that @TheBookBunk is doing with #MissingBits is so important because so much of Kenya's history is untold, and of that which exists, most of it isn't from our perspective.

In case you missed it, @TheBookBunk started #MissingBits - a crowdsourcing digital archive project - inviting members of the public to share letters, photos, and audio recordings as a means of collating a shared narrative of Kenyaβs history. #NRBLibraries https://t.co/jBCS6YkUYv+
There seems to be a disconnect between what young people want from the news and what they get from the news.
But one thing that we've realized is the feeling of being "talked at" in the news is primarily because the news we get is free.
#MissingBits
And the only way we can challenge this narrative of "our media is only for the elite" is to create space for new media, new voices that aren't tied to the elite, and try to put pressure on this Elite Congenstation in media, which is rooted in colonial legacies. #MissingBits
"and the argument they levy is 'human interest stories don't sell' which further fuels the public's narrative of 'our Media is only for the elite'. But the harsh reality is, the ppl in politics, those in power, are the owners of these existing media." #MissingBits
"We need to change the framing of these persistent narratives about Africa that center around conflict, death, and poverty. It's time to change, we need to humanize the African experience." - @LindyMtongana #MissingBits
"Our media should not just create stories with the goal of sending news to International media outlets just to paint a picture of whats going on in Africa. Our media needs to document our experiences for our sake, for who we are, and create our position..." #MissingBits
However, I see it as "Journalists erase history every day" because the nature of how our media was setup was not to record the lives of everyday Kenyans, but rather amplify from the voice of government and the colonial empire, and that's why gaps exist. - #MissingBits
4. Moderating the discussion will be @BarazaLab's curator, Christine Mungai, an experienced writer & journalist, whose work has been published in The Africa Report, The Guardian, and The Elephant (among other notable publications). #MissingBits - #NRBLibraries.
