Replying to @judykibinge
@judykibinge has made one of the most powerful films made by a Kenyan on this very subject. It's called Scarred and it's on @afri_docs (i.e. you can stream it for free).
Least we forget... 1n 1984, the Kenya armed forces raided Wajir District in NE Kenya. In an operation that began on 9 Feb, and ended on 14 Feb, 1984, the forces killed over 3000 men from Wajir at Wagalla Airstrip. No one has ever been prosecuted for this crime to this day.

"We can all do our bit, but everything is being led by women on the continent." @nimkoali is a Somali anti-FGM campaigner and survivor of FGM. She spoke to us ahead of the International Day of Tolerance Against FGM about her mission for the year ahead and beyond.

Girls are born complete. No girl or woman should ever be subjected to female genital mutilation (FGM). Yet, 200 million girls and women worldwide have undergone FGM – and 68 million more are at risk if we don’t speed up efforts to #EndFGM. Learn more: unfpa.org/EndFGM

Check out @afri_docs
I wish we had a platform like Netflix but solely for African movies especially all those that go to film festivals. Because there are so many movies that are slipping through the cracks. Ama I’m just not looking hard enough?

Justice delayed is justice denied. Six years later: “The state has still not prosecuted all those responsible for the events at Marikana, offered an official apology or provided compensation.” google.co.za/amp/s/www.daily… #Marikana #MinersShotDown
