This is exciting, it's interesting that it's resonating in South Africa and Nigeria. But,it makes sense considering that they are the larger media markets in Africa. I know people hate unsolicited advice but since the newsletter ended with a call for investment, I thought I'd suggest the organisations I've seen doing amazing things with African creatives. I'm sure you're aware of them but it won't hurt to share. I personally appreciate the work done by Bloomberg Philanthropies, Luminate, Open Society Foundation and the Ford Foundation. I know they aren't with controversy but I like what they do on the ground on the continent. Besides, I feel like CMQ meets their standard.
