What if we stopped calling them "objects" and started asking: what does it mean to meet your history in a museum? What is felt before it is understood? The Cold Brutish Museum asks the questions museums avoid. eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-cold-bru…

It is a community gathering where lived experience becomes knowledge, and reflection becomes a form of care. Come as you are. Listen, share, or simply be present. As we sit with these histories, we also begin the work of repair, inquiring the guarantees of non-repetition.

THE COLD BRUTISH MUSEUM This exhibition emerges from Africaniwa’s recent contribution to the Object’s Journey exhibition at York Army Museum. A deeply emotional encounter with histories that are not distant, but lived, carried, and felt.

How to Write About African Elections: A Practical Guide (French edition) As countries across the continent continue to hold elections- most recently in Benin-journalists are once again called upon to explain complex political moments to audiences at home and abroad. Yet coverage of African elections too often defaults to familiar narratives of fraud, tension, or instability, leaving little room for nuance, context, or deeper analysis. How to Write About African Elections: A Practical Guide offers journalists concrete tools to move beyond these clichés. Rather than focusing solely on election-day drama, the guide encourages reporters to consider the full electoral cycle: the legal frameworks, political histories, institutions, civic participation, and everyday realities that shape how elections unfold. Drawing lessons that remain relevant across different electoral moments, including recent polls such as those in Benin, the guide emphasizes responsible, contextual, and people‑centred reporting. It invites journalists to ask better questions: Who benefits from current electoral arrangements? How do citizens engage politically beyond voting? What structural issues influence outcomes long before ballots are cast? At a time when elections across Africa continue to attract intense scrutiny, this guide remains a useful resource for journalists seeking to tell more accurate, fair, and compelling stories- stories that reflect the complexity of democratic processes on the continent rather than reducing them to moments of crisis.
