Imagine a world where we appreciated African women’s businesses the way we appreciate the easy-bake dessert that is brownies! Crazy, right!? ⁠ We're in the kitchen, where all women belong, baking up a treat and discussing the importance of investing in women. Our message is simple: Show 👏 Women 👏 The Money 👏 In this episode, our resident Woman In The Kitchen bakes brownies and discusses the advantages of investing in African women's businesses. Despite being the backbone of the continent's economy, these businesses don't get the funds that they deserve.⁠ ⁠ If this made you hungry for women's economic empowerment, come back next week for more!

@KarenPierceUK You are the best in the biz, Karen. Thank you for your service!

Serving as Ambassador to the US has been an extraordinary privilege. I will treasure the memories & friendships. My deepest thanks to all - Americans & Britons – who have made our incredible relationship stronger than ever over the past 5 years. There's no greater alliance!

@KassMcQ As good an idea as more than half of what has made it to air, so why not?

Survivor 50 should be called “Jury Duty” and have me & Lex as team captain choosing teams from all other last jurors who never won. (We’re the only two to have been 1st and final jurors so we’d be the best forepersons.) Thoughts?

@MSuzman @WorldBank @gatesfoundation #InvestInWomen ❤️

I’m here in Washington, D.C. this week for the @WorldBank Annual Meetings! I look forward to productive conversations on the importance of #IDA21 replenishment for low-income countries & reaffirming the @gatesfoundation's commitment to #genderequality. Now, more than ever, we need leaders to strengthen their commitment to delivering on these shared priorities. #WBGMeetings

@jonlovett @survivorcbs I’ve never been more excited for a season!

Can't believe I actually went on @survivorcbs and then you all see it in 2 weeks. 9/18:

Donald Trump doesn’t know a damn thing about service to his country.

Did you know that child marriage is still legal in 38 U.S. states? Yup, you read that right. We were lucky enough to have activist and child marriage survivor @PayzeeMalika join us at #GlobalCitizenNOW to discuss what we can do to #EndChildMarriage for good.

With back-to-back presidencies of the G20 & COP30, Brazil 🇧🇷 has a unique opportunity to shape the global agenda this year. I reflected on these processes, & the vital role of @GlblCtzn ⭕️ in ensuring success for the most vulnerable ones!

It was an incredible privilege to receive an award from HRH The Princess Royal at Buckingham Palace this week. It was also a moment to reflect and be grateful for all the people whose support, encouragement and guidance led to that special moment. Thank you ✨

Hey @Ash_Kalra, why did you cancel the hearing for #AB2924? 📣 Join us in sending an urgent message to Assemblymember Ash Kalra to put the bill to ban child marriage in California back on the table. #EndChildMarriage #18NoExceptions globalcitizen.org/en/action/ash-…

Closing the global gender gap could add $7T to the world economy. @melindagates shares how building women’s economic power is key to a better future in an interview with @NewsHour: to.pbs.org/44bflDA

Asm. @Ash_Kalra condemned thousands of California girls to modern slavery by cancelling hearing for #AB2924. We urge @Ash_Kalra to act decisively and schedule a hearing to pass the bill to end child marriage in CA, #18NoExceptions. #EndChildMarriage @AsmCottie @UnchainedAtLast

@TomCottonAR So very lazy

The Civil War started because the American people elected an anti-slavery Republican as president and Democrats revolted rather than accept minor restrictions on the expansion of slavery to the western territories.

@StephenTYeung @iuis_online Hope you enjoy!

@fakedansavage I’ve always found abortion rights to be incredibly sexy myself
