Can't emphasize enough how much I enjoy reading the @thecontinent - it's a Saturday morning highlight, even when the stories are dark, there's always hope in it. These days it feels like a minor act of resistance to seek out news from new places where people are doing their best to build up the bulwark of solid information against the power of manipulated narrative.

Flipboard@flipboard.social - What is the most inclusive film festival in the world? @thecontinent says it’s the Berlinale, which this year supported multiple African movies and auteurs. The Golden Bear — the festival’s grand prize — was won by Senegalese-French Mati Diop for her art reparations documentary, “Dahomey.” She is the first Black person to win that award.
