MsAfropolitan has got a new look! From top to bottom, page to page, it’s more bespoke, beautiful and easy to search.

Actually, it’s more than a new look, my hope is that this new design will bring you an improved reader experience that’s clean, uncluttered, informative and engaging. One of my favourite things about the new design is that the hundreds of posts on this site are now easier to access.

What do you think? Hope you like it and look forward to hearing your suggestions on what to do next.

    This is nice Minna and your profile picture is lovely. I’ve always been supportive of your mission and have learned quite a bit about young women of color whom reside in the various countries on the continent of Africa. Though, I’m a black woman in American with lost ties to my ancestral home…I claim the whole continent! ^◡^

      And so you should, Carolyn. (Claim the continent that is.)The phrase ‘African women’, for me refers broadly to women of African heritage from the continent and beyond. Thank you for continuing this journey with me, I’ve learned from you too and look forward to many more discussions. Happy that you like the new design and thanks for the compliment 🙂

Feminism. Africa. Popular Culture. Social Criticism.

Hi! I'm Minna Salami, I'm a Nigerian-Finnish and Swedish writer and social critic, and the founder of the multiple award-winning blog, MsAfropolitan, which connects feminism with critical reflections on contemporary culture from an Africa-centred perspective. As a lecturer and keynote speaker, I have spoken at over 300 universities, cultural events and conferences, on five continents. I am the author of "Sensuous Knowledge: A Black Feminist Approach for Everyone - a collection of thought provoking essays that explore questions central to how we see ourselves, our history, and our world." (Harper Collins US) Read full bio
