Sound Designing for Film and TV was interesting this year (and the past years). I’ll be sharing a couple of projects I’m proud to have worked on in the ensuing thread 🧵 below.

BATUK: BRITAIN'S COLONIAL GRIP IN KENYA BATUK: The White Man’s Burden in Kenya is not just a documentary about a British military base where soldiers roll around in the dirt for six months before returning home to the UK. It is a documentary about abuse of power, occupation of indigenous land and the unfinished business of colonialism. For decades, ordinary Kenyans living around BATUK have raised allegations of abuse, sexual violence, ecological destruction and impunity, while one of the world’s most powerful former colonial powers continues to operate freely on Kenyan soil, handing out small amounts of compensation whenever evidence of alleged crimes reaches the media. At the centre of the documentary is the story of Agnes Wanjiru, a 21-year-old Kenyan woman who was tortured, killed and dumped in a septic tank, while British soldiers mocked and ridiculed her death on social media. One soldier posed in front of the septic tank and posted, “If you know, you know.” Others joked about the five-month-old daughter she left behind, posting imagery of a baby beside a gravesite. But the story goes beyond Agnes and her tragic killing and the shocking behaviour of British troops thereafter. The documentary asks deeper questions: How did Britain maintain a military presence in Kenya, the very same year the country supposedly gained independence? Why are foreign troops still training on stolen land while local communities continue to suffer? And above all, why does the Kenyan government allow all of this? Laikipia County, currently in the spotlight because of plans for an Ebola quarantine facility for US citizens, is the very same county where the BATUK military base is headquartered. This documentary helps connect the dots about why Kenya’s political elite remain so willing to cede sovereignty to foreign powers like Britain, and why they may be willing to do the same again with the United States. This is Sovereign Media’s first-ever documentary. We are a small, independent team with a brand-new YouTube channel and no corporate backing. We need your support now more than ever. Watch. Share.

Apparently, it’s started popping off at Ikeja. It seems the levee is about to break.

Le pauvre parfois il lève sa tête comme ça pour envoyer des centres pareils et Mbappé se trouve déjà au milieu de terrain. Quel bonheur de le voir s’épanouir avec des joueurs qui savent se déplacer dans la surface.

Again, not even surprised that these two are using their platform as a laundromat for prejudice. You take crude, violent xenophobia from the streets, run it through a 5-minute historical monologue about the Boers & apartheid, have two grifting Nigerian hosts nod along, & sudenly it emerges clean, pressed, & ready for consumption 💀 The historical timeline is correct right up until the conclusion. Black South Africans did emerged from apartheid into a structurally rigged economy. But to look at an economy still entirely dominated by white monopoly capital & decide that African migrants are the structural problem is a very deliberate misdirection. They know exactly who the White elite gatekeepers hoarding their resources are, but there is a collective lack of nerve to even mention them loudly on a podcast. It's infinitely easier to harass a Zimbabwean waiter, burn out a Nigerian shop owner, or demand that Chidimma Adetshina be stripped of her citizenship than it is to challenge the actual architects of the post-apartheid economy. The African migrant is the sacrificial lamb. They are the path of least resistance—the only ones within reach of the stick and the cutlass. If even the VCs who made it out of the shanties lack the nerve to look their actual economic oppressors in the eye, what hope is there for the mob in the streets?

Since FIFA said they'd be in touch about making this official, I just gotta say that I really couldn't think of anyone better to represent the World Cup than the guy who's spent the last three years promoting and learning the world's cultures and breaking stereotypes around them

@officialABAT After 20 days? 20 days before you could issue this shabby action. Nothing stops you and your jezebelic wife from even visiting. JUST FUCK OFF. Your days are numbered at Aso Rock. Just make sure you wash all the plates before you leave, incompetent bastard.

Three weeks ago, my 23-year-old neighbor was kidnapped on her way to Kontagora in Niger State. While in captivity, the bandits repeatedly raped her taking turns sleeping with her night after night. Still, they kept bargaining with her father over the phone, demanding ransom even as they violated her. Her father fought with everything he had. He hustled day and night, borrowed from everyone, took loans, sold whatever he could determined to bring his daughter home. When he finally gathered the full amount, he called the bandits and begged them, ‘Please, give the phone to my daughter. Let me speak to her. I want her to know I’m coming for her.’ They gave her the phone. In a broken, traumatized voice, she told her father: ‘Dad, do not suffer yourself looking for the money. They have been sleeping with me. I’m traumatized. I can’t forgive myself. Even if I’m released, I’ll kill myself. Don’t bother paying the ransom.’ Those were the last words she ever spoke to him. While her father was still holding the phone, he heard the gunshot. He heard his daughter being killed. Moments later, the bandits sent pictures of her remains to him, a final act of cruelty. A 23-year-old girl. My neighbor. Someone’s daughter, someone’s sister, someone’s friend gone in the most horrific way possible. This is not just one story. This is the nightmare too many families are living in Niger State and across Nigeria. Young women snatched on the roads, violated, used as bargaining chips, and discarded like nothing. Living in Nigeria has become truly scary. You wake up, you step out, and you don’t know if you or your loved ones will return home. The fear is constant. The pain is constant. And too often, justice never comes. Rest in peace to my neighbor.

As you're out there looking for your daily bread, I pray Nigeria never happens to you.
