Here is the original voice of Emperor #Menelik from 1898 sent to queen Victoria, England!

He was greatly articulated, wisely spoken and a fantastic diplomat.

He was able to achieve the unity of Ethiopia & defend Ethiopians from colonialists!

Back in March, Joe Biden, Bill Clinton and I sat down with three real icons – the hosts of “SmartLess” – to talk about everything from the economy and gun violence, to what we miss about being in office and the importance of sending Joe and Kamala back to the White House. We…

Gracelin Baskaran, Amara Ekeruche, Chris Heitzig, @Aloysiusord, and Lemma W. Senbet propose three mechanisms for financing #climate -resilient infrastructure in #Africa .

The problem with “Great Replacement Theory” is that it fails to address the foundational issue of low birth rates.

Record low birth rates are leading to population collapse in Europe and even faster population collapse in most of Asia. Immigration is low in Asia, so there is no…

Great that US State Dept hosted a US-Africa University Partnership conference April 26 with Asst Secstate for Africa Molly Phee participating. Will be greater if US Congress provides funding to promote long term partnerships - like Harimaya (Ethiopia) had with Oklahoma State.

Africa loses $89B annually to illicit financial flows, equating to 3.7% of its GDP. Tax incentives contribute to a further $220B loss.

These challenges require concerted efforts to promote fiscal transparency & efficiency in tax administration.

So Uganda's President 'King' Museveni 1st has appointed his son Muhoozi as commander of Uganda's armed forces. Anyone doubt the transition has begun? Why not just declare a monarchy and end the farce of holding 'free, fair' elections? Save money + grief

Youth around Africa should take heart from Diomaye Faye's victory in Senegal. They elected him. Hopefully youth activism will transform other African nations whose dinosaurs are trying to hang on to power - even the Cameroons and Zimbabwes. Youth Power!

Yet another indication of climate change harming Africa - South Sudan having to close schools due to heat. The Continent which contributed least to global climate change is the one suffering the most. Same old story, over and over!

If Somalia wants to develop a new constitution appropriate for its society and decentralized state structure - look at the Swiss Confederation's document. It's kept peace for centuries among ethnicities which are traditional enemies.

Very commendable for Senegal's new President Faye to start with transparency regarding his own wealth - only $6,600 in the bank. How different from the old kleptocrats! Will be even more commendable if it remains modest while he's in office. Youth Power!
