In all my time on Twitter, I’ve never seen anything more shameless than Igbo men rallying behind a white woman while throwing Igbo women under the bus. I’ve never seen them this defensive about a woman on this app. White supremacy >>

Africa’s most honest architecture is increasingly coming from its women. Nzinga B. Mboup grew up between Mozambique, Cameroon, South Africa and Senegal. She saw what colonial urbanism did to African cities. Then she decided to build differently. Her practice Worofila works with compressed earth bricks, typha plant fiber, and self-supporting earthen vaults, materials that have kept people cool in West Africa for centuries. In Dakar, where concrete dominates because it’s cheap and politically convenient, that is a radical act. She puts it plainly: “Why did we ever stop building with earth?” Nobody has a good answer.
