The liberation struggles of Palestine, Congo, and Sudan do not exist in isolation; they represent a unified resistance against Western imperialism, global oppression, and resource extraction.

It’s not just that the G20 excludes most of Africa, it’s that it reflects a colonial economic order that treats Africa as a resource pool, not a decision-maker. One seat (SA) wasn’t justice. Adding the AU in 2023? Still symbolism without power.

The G20 has an important role to play in global affairs. But its lack of representation and informal way of working need to be fixed first.

Welcome to Issue 197 of The Continent

At the Zambia-Malawi border, what Big Conservation sold like a fantasy in Disneyland has turned into a recurring nightmare. Nobody seems to have thought about the people living in the area and now 10 people are dead.

Calling women who have been murderer money-hungry is a grotesque way to excuse male violence.

To stand in solidarity with displaced Sudanese women is to reject erasure. It is to name the violence and the systems behind it.

What’s surprising about Habyarimana’s death and its aftermath is how it created deep fissures within the international community and Africa.

Stop outsourcing peace in the DRC to bureaucrats and regional armies. Invest in grassroots movements. The most overlooked peacebuilders are women who engage militias. We know of rebels who’ve been reintegrated into society bse they listened to women peacebuilders.

Goma didn’t fall to M23. It fell to global capitalism, imperialism, and the greed of multinationals stealing DRC’s resources.

On any given day, you will read a dozen headilines about leveraging something or the other for Africa: “Leveraging AI for African development”, “leveraging green energy for African..”, “leveraging AfCFA for African prosperity”. The continent is at the risk of being “overleveraged”.

Sudan’s crisis isn’t just about warlords, but systems. It is not an isolated event but a consequence of global militarized capitalism. Sanctions are a step but they don’t solve systemic issues and mean little when the global North profits from Sudan’s gold & arms trade.

The Guardian has named the 80 women murdered this year where a man was charged. One every 3 days.

Terrible. So many husbands, boyfriends, even brothers & sons are killers.
What is behind this?
