In 2015, ExxonMobil drilled a well 120 miles off the coast of Guyana — a tiny South American nation most people couldn't find on a map. What they found beneath the ocean floor would change everything. Eleven billion barrels of recoverable oil. One of the largest offshore discoveries in a generation. Within years, Guyana went from one of the Western Hemisphere's poorest countries to posting the highest GDP growth rate on the planet — 62% in a single year. But behind the staggering numbers lies a far more complex story. A production sharing agreement that critics say could deprive Guyana of $55 billion. A sovereign wealth fund being drained almost as fast as it fills. A Venezuelan dictator who held a referendum to annex two-thirds of the country. And the looming question that haunts every nation that strikes oil — does the wealth save you, or swallow you whole?
This is the full story of how Exxon's gamble turned Guyana into the world's fastest-growing economy, and the fight over who actually benefits from the boom.

A xenophobic movement that targets fellow Africans, claiming to fight for Black South Africans now finds common ground with 'AfriForum' - an organisation rooted in the defence of the unjust white-settler colonial power and apartheid-era privilege.
The Spearhead’s Sannario examines how this alliance exposes the complete lack of any fundamental ideological basis beneath March and March!

In this video, South African politician, Dr Khanyisile Litchfield-Tshabalala posits that South African TV series The Polygamist presents a deeply distorted portrayal of a practice that has existed within African societies for centuries. She argues that polygamy, as traditionally practiced in many African communities, was not merely an undisciplined man pursuing multiple sexual partners at will, but a social institution governed by cultural norms, ancestral laws and communal expectations, with responsibilities and obligations toward every member of the family.
In her words, consent, accountability and the welfare of the household were central to its practice. It was not synonymous with promiscuity. Whereas she says, what The Polygamist depicts is something fundamentally different: a man driven by sexual gratification, deception and disregard for the women involved. Far from an honest representation of traditional African polygamy, she says, it is a bastardisation of the institution.
