🇩🇪 Before the Holocaust, Germany committed genocide in 🇳🇦 Namibia. 80,000 Herero and Nama people killed. Land stolen. Skulls sent to Berlin for "research."
More than a century later, descendants are still waiting. No justice. No reparations. Just documentaries and empty apologies.
The West cries "never again," while the graves in Africa remain unmarked.
Watch. Learn. Remember. Because they won't teach this in schools.

"Ritz-Carlton Hotel, that is not how you introduce yourself to the continent. Ask around who Kenyans are , we are not your ordinary Africans," Caroline Mutoko schools the Marriott Group and all those who approved the construction of a hotel on the wildebeest migration path!

Across Africa and its diaspora, conversations about repair and justice continue to grow. The Wakati Wetu Festival brings these discussions into one space, where art, activism, and imagination meet. Baraza Media Lab is proud to be part of this gathering that asks what a repaired future could look like for Africa and its people.

I have watched the drama unfolding around Butere Girls with a mix of sadness, frustration, and, honestly, amusement.
If I were the President’s advisor, here’s what I would have done:
#ButereGirls Butere Girls #Nakuru
In 2013, when the government sought to silence Shackles of Doom, a bold play by Cleophas Malala performed by Butere Girls, I took a stand. I filed Petition No. 192 of 2013, and the High Court, in a decisive ruling by Justice David Majanja, affirmed that students have the right to speak, to challenges, and to create. The ban was struck down.
Now, over a decade later, Echoes of War by the same Butere girls, faces similar resistance at the national level. This is not just about one play, it’s about defending the very right to free expression in our education system.
The executive must understand that our Constitution guarantees freedom of thought and expression and is not guaranteed by permission. This isn’t a matter of opinion, it’s the law.
The classroom is not a cage. Our stages must remain free.
The 2013 ruling stands as a reminder that no government can silence the voices of the youth and its citizens.
We will not stand by while those in power attempt to stifle creativity, expression and the right to challenge the status quo.
Let them speak, create and inspire without fear of retribution!
Haki yao, sauti yao!

None of these so called Nakuru “leaders” have condemned Butere Girls Drama Club attack?? Why the silence? This is happening in your hood, say something ✖️✖️Ruto Must Go
What kind of country silences its children for speaking through art? The recent ban on the Butere Girls’ play is not just an attack on students, it’s an attack on freedom of expression itself. These are young minds, using creativity to reflect the world they live in, yet the government sees that as a threat?
We watch films from across the globe that challenge power, question leadership, and confront political systems and no one flinches. But when Kenyan students do the same, they’re punished?
Art is meant to provoke, to inspire, to awaken. If our leaders fear a school play, maybe the problem isn’t the script,When did we become so afraid of our own youth?

Oh wait till this next album Drops!
We extend our deepest gratitude to @LulaOficial for #Brazil's exemplary leadership as #G20 President. Your vision and dedication, especially the launch of the Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty, have set a remarkable standard in tackling the #globalfoodcrisis.
🚨733 million people are hungry, a majority of them are smallholder farmers pushed to the margins by #ClimateChange. Unfortunately, they have no financing to adapt and thrive. On this #DisasterRiskReduction day, we call for change. #DRRDay#EmptyPlates
Globally, 733M people face hunger & 2.8B still can’t afford a healthy, nutritious diet. @HungryForAct raises awareness of chronic hunger and food insecurity through its #EmptyPlates campaign, reminding us that together, we can help end the food and malnutrition crisis for good 🍽️
