Brutalism in Ghana

This Juneteenth, we're highlighting films that explore history, identity, courage, community, and the pursuit of freedom. From historical dramas to modern classics, each offers a unique perspective worth revisiting. Which would you add to the list?

Viola Davis’ career spans decades, with some of her biggest milestones coming later in life. She grew up in “abject poverty,” living in rat infested, condemned buildings and at times eating out of garbage cans and dumpsters. In 2015, she became the first woman of color to win the Emmy for best lead actress in a drama for "How to Get Away With Murder." A year later, she won an Academy Award for "Fences," a role that had already earned her a Tony Award. In 2023, she completed EGOT status with a Grammy for narrating her memoir "Finding Me." She is also a co owner of JuVee Productions, which helped bring "The Woman King" to the screen. She is one of the greatest living self-made Americans on the #Forbes250 list. forbes.com/sites/alexknap… 📸: Emma McIntyre/WireImage via Getty Images

I've lived much of my adult life with a cheat code, which is to recommend The Prisoner to interesting people you want to impress—crushes, cool bosses, writers. That time is coming to an end. But it's okay. This is the push I need to level up.

We've been doing a lot of work at Afapinen and thinking of moving into a better phase. So here is me once again asking for support. You can use the Paystack link in qtd tweet or make a direct NGN transfer to Afapinen Media Enterprise 6740744975 Moniepoint MFB Thank you. 💓

@carlterver Like, let’s be fr

Wetin I wan use a minute with God do?

@DAM0LA Like I remember he was also father figure and mentor to his children’s friends and cousins too

For TV shows, the first names that come to mind are Norbert Young in Family Circle and Edge of Paradise, as well as Kunle Bamtefa in Fuji House of Commotion. For films, it's a bit trickier. I'd probably go with Pete Edochie in Lionheart and RMD in The Wedding Party.

@DAM0LA Edge of Paradise!

“There’s no dishonesty” Goes ahead to rename dishonesty as agenda. Most of what you term agenda in this place are just bare lies. But hey, banger boys will be banger boys

I’m so proud of Ghana. What a win!

This commentary has me thinking if I’m watching football or wrestling

You don’t like Ronaldo, we get it but some of these takes are just ridiculous.

@OtigaAlih Why, bro? 😭 There are hardly answers to such questions. We just know it when we see it. For example, reeently published fiction in Afapinen, "Séance." afapinen.com/2026/05/30/kum…

Ever now and then I meet Nigerian readers who want to engage with fiction that dazzles the mind. But there is hardly very much of that today. You have to go back, perhaps, and dig through older works. We live in a simpler time where art itself has taken the shape of simpleness.
