what a beautiful morning 🌈😊 @moongirls_live & @animaxfyb has been awarded Best Graphic Novel 2021 at the Nommo Awards by the African Speculative Fiction Society @africansfs 🥳🥳🥳
Ghanaian LGBTQ+ exist and have existed in pre-colonial Africa under different labels or no label at all, before this NEW advent of religious homophobes & DEMONS masquerading as "holy" wrecking havoc on our cultural psyche.
one of Africa's biggest problems are its religious extremists. whether christian extremists in Ghana pushing to criminalize Ghanaian LGBTQ existence or muslim extremists in Gambia pushing to reinstate the mutilation of women. they are the biggest sellouts. they CANNOT win
A bill seeking to repeal The Gambia's ban on female genital mutilation (FGM) will be discussed by lawmakers this month.
FGM was outlawed under former President Yahya Jammeh in 2015, but influential clerics have been pushing for the ban to be repealed.

And that's why the fierce backlash at feminists. Y'all must be very aware of how scary your patriarchy has been.
Gender & Sexuality is NOT a discussion for reverends or patriarchal lawyers. This is why Ghana is in the state we're in today. Gh media, get Gender Studies researchers & academics for your panels & interviews. Otherwise you're contributing to the dangerous misinformation
Ebony's being and existence tells girls and women to be the truest selves of themselves they can be. Live your truth, demand your right to your own happiness in a world that will tell you you cannot be because you're feminine. Live. Your. Truth. #EbonyReignsForever
More like decriminalized. To stop police extortion of huge amounts of money and to stop the unjust arrests for those who cannot pay those ridiculous extortion fees.
like joke like joke, Ghana is in a crisis. we're being held at gunpoint by Christian Fundamentalists. this is a time for Vigilance. it is a time for Radical Love.

In my opinion, all who fought for this evil i consider you a DISGRACE to Ghana and all the blood that was shed for Freedom for ALL Ghanaians. We spit on you
