The news cycle has been brutal recently. So listen to this. It’s a smart, joyful look at the rise of Afrobeats and what is says about the power of the African diaspora. open.spotify.com/episode/0b1…

My brain right now: this one-try win is a credit to my intelligence.
My brain when it takes me six tries: this is purely a stupid game of chance and luck and has no correlation with my intelligence.

"Nothing is Foreign" has launched!!
I literally cheered when @anima_tk said "we're taking you to El Salvador." Can't wait for other diaspora kids to have that feeling.
First up: Bukele and his big gamble on Bitcoin — or "magic beans from the internet." hyperurl.co/nothingisforeign

I miss travel. Not just the kind where I lie on a hot beach, but also the harder, more revelatory kind. When you go somewhere brand new, unfamiliar, stay there for a bit and maybe begin understand it a little better. This podcast will take you places.

🗣️ Coming this Friday from @CBCNews and @cbcpodcasts:
Nothing is Foreign: a weekly world news podcast for people who want the view from on the ground, not from above.
Hosted by Tamara Khandaker (@anima_tk).
Listen to the trailer here: hyperurl.co/nothingisforeign
