Part of our African flute series, the ọjà flute of the Igbo people of Nigeria plays a central role in their social, cultural & spiritual events. It is considered the “soul” of Igbo cultural music and is a key communication tool, often referred to as a “talking instrument”.

3 things Starmer could do instead of camps in old barracks that would actually WORK👇
1. Create safe, regulated routes to apply for asylum in the UK
2. Let asylum seekers WORK & support themselves
3. Fast track status for people from obviously unsafe countries

On streaming and network TV, some caregiving storylines have already cut through, including on shows like HBO's “The Pitt” and ABC’s “High Potential."
Could an effort to show more caregiving on TV influence Congress to pass paid leave?
'Cheers' made designated drivers mainstream and 'Will & Grace' changed hearts on marriage equality. Can TV do the same for paid family leave?

You might have heard of 'dark kitchens' when a row of sheds in a car park churn out food for Deliveroo. They're unpopular and low margin. So the next big thing in London food is 'host kitchens' where local pubs, restaurants and kebab shops cook for big brands. www.londoncentric.media/p/host-kitch...

Anton Wilhelm Amos philosophisches Werk, kann man bei Anke Graneß nachlesen, wird indessen selten gewürdigt. Seine Biografie scheint interessanter, wenn dann wird seine (verschollene) Arbeit über den Rechtsstatut von versklavten Afrikanern betont; seine Kritik des Cartesianischen Leib-Seele-Problems
