‘This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There’s no time for despair, no place for self pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. This is how civilizations heal.’ - Toni Morrison
Host: "...What does this movie mean for Africa?"
John Kani: " Well, it deals with the myth that we would still be naked, chasing each other if the colonialists never came. It deals with the idea of how things would be if we were not interrupted" 👌👌👌
When I designed the Ijezi, I wanted to create something that celebrates Rwanda as far and as wide as possible, but even the vision board didn't have anything close to this. I am so grateful 🙏🏾.

We tell them not to walk at night, they are raped in broad daylight in a government institution.
We tell them to learn self defence, champion boxers are shot in the face.

Men have always been the problem.
Peter Drury is on another level!! The Croatian players piled on top of the photographer in celebration and he said "in a flash, the whole picture's changed"
So, those of you who have seen pics of the

The new bridge is only for vehicles and pedestrians. Boda bodas and cyclists should not use it. Use the old bridge. It is the season of big projects in Uganda. We will soon unveil new projects like the hydro power dams.
When you see Monastir and Zamalek play, you see the strength of basketball programs that have existed for decades. It's time for us to invest in the grassroot programs.

Just give me good service all year round.
Shout out to everyone who worked tirelessly behind the scenes for months to make this fashion week possible.
Thank you to our leadership for continuing to create opportunities for us to take advantage of.

On this day I always think about purpose. The brave men and women who liberated this country had such a strong sense of purpose. They fought for a future that they knew they may never see. We should never forget their sacrifice.

An appropriate time to bring back this gem. An Argentina fan & Spain fan recite the iconic Victor Hugo Morales commentary of Maradona’s 2nd goal vs. England at Mexico ‘86.

A reminder that Kipchoge failed to qualify for the Kenyan Olympic track team (2012) before he switched to road running... and now he is the greatest of all time.
