AFRICAN WORLD HERITAGE DAY | May 5

Every year on May 5th, #African World #Heritage Day offers an opportunity for people around the world to #celebrate Africa.#AfricanWorldHeritageDay

Africa is the world’s second-largest continent. Some of the biggest threats facing Africa include climate change, uncontrolled development, disease, civil unrest, and poaching. Unfortunately, many of Africa’s #cultural and natural wonders are at risk of losing universal value. Because of the threats facing this diverse continent, it’s more important than ever to protect and preserve their #heritage.

In honor of this day, explore some interesting facts about Africa:

The continent consists of 54 countries and one non-self-governing country.
Ancient #Egypt’s #Pharaonic #civilization is one of the world’s oldest civilizations.
There are over 2,000 recognized languages on the continent.
The most spoken language is Arabic, followed by English, Swahili, and French.
Africa has 1.1 billion people, and over half of them are under the age of 25.
By 2050, Africa’s population is expected to double.
About 90% of malaria cases in the world take place in Africa.

The continent is home to the largest reserves of precious metals in the world. One more amazing fact about Africa is that it contains the world’s largest hot desert, the Sahara. This desert is 3.6 million square miles, which is comparable to China or the continental United States.

>> #DesmondTutu probably knew as much as anybody on the planet about apartheid

Every single #Republican knew as much as (or even more than) anybody on the planet how horrible #Trump was & remains, yet they foisted him on us, continue to prop him up, & destroy #US in service of their horrible agenda.

Just because #Tutu knew about #apartheid in #SouthAfrica does not mean his misapplication of that to #Israel was agenda-free & unimpeachable.

The offspring have all seen the picture of chicks wearing cupcake cases as tutus and I knew that if I didn’t do it first, they would try it at some point. So, I present to the Mastoverse a four day old chick wearing a paper #tutu.

That evil glare in the second pic tells you exactly what the #chick thinks of it all 😂 This is not to say I won’t be doing exactly the same thing to my #Dorkings when they hatch 😇

"The foundation of the late South African Archbishop and Nobel Peace Prize winner Desmond #Tutu criticized the naval exercises, calling the drills “disgraceful” and “tantamount to a declaration that South Africa is joining the war against Ukraine”.
