31 h. ago Must leaders be men? In Africa, it's time for the patriarchy to give way | Minna Salami

All-male elections at the African Union highlighted the exclusion of talented women from power. The continent cannot thrive like thatWhat does it mean to be African? Is it simply being one of the 1.5 billion people from the continent? Does African mean the same as black? If you are a descendant from the UK, US, Brazil or Cuba, are you still African? Are only black Africans African, or does this include white Zimbabweans and Arab Egyptians? Or is Africa merely “a western invention”?These questions are passionately debated. To be African is to inhabit an identity shaped by a complicated history, politics and geography.

What is it about this unfortunate creature that has evoked such big feelings?Here’s an unexpected addition to our 2025 bingo card: young women across the internet have been devastated by the demise of a nightmarish fanged fish. A black seadevil anglerfish (unflatteringly described by one marine biologist as “pretty much evolved to be a giant head”), usually a deep-sea dweller, was recently caught on camera swimming close to the surface by a shark research group near Tenerife. Sadly, apparently sick or injured, it died.This, however, was only the start of the anglerfish’s journey in the hearts and TikToks of young women. The fish’s story has triggered an outpouring of emotion.
