For 20 years, Somalia has served as a laboratory for US-led unchecked forever war, yet has failed to garner significant critical attention & analysis. As bombs fall on Iran, now is the time to confront how decades of presidential over-reach got us here. arabcenterdc.org/event/us-polic…

Our blog section is BACK, and we’re pleased to continue with the investigation into Somali gender relations after Raxma Ubax’s entry in issue 2 of our journal. Nasra’s blog piece forces us to reevaluate our understanding of the equalising power architecture has in Somali society
Gobanimo@JournalGobanimo

The second entry in our blog section seeks to (re)address the understanding of Somali women via the/her built environment. Nasra Aden provides a strong critique of white feminist discourse on women’s liberation in the Global South, through the practice of building Somali habitats

You’ve posted a two-line equivalent of an ad-lib, something sung lightly as an accompaniment to dance, and presented it as if it encompassed the great richness of the Somali poetic tradition. Here is an example of maanso, actual Somali poetry:

The Somalis are renowned for their ancient oral poetry tradition, but the examples in “Somali Poetry: An Introduction” (1964) strike the modern reader as lacking in depth. “The best dance is the dance of the Eastern clans / The best people are ourselves.”
