Enjoying this week’s issue of @thecontinent. Besides excellent coverage of current affairs across the African continent, it includes this rather splendid summary of the whole sorry Bankman-Fried saga 😎

Halloween: a day when we get it right.

and we accept them all without question,
compliment them, treat them kindly,
and give them good things.

Why don't we live like that?

-Steve Garnass-Holmes
