<p> <strong>In this shining, powerful polemic, Minna Salami opens up a new view of gender equality through two simple questions. What happens when we consider feminism through an African lens, and Africa through a feminist one?</strong> </p> <p>Why does feminism matter in Africa and how does African feminism relate to black liberation and global feminism? What does African feminism show about the individual and belonging? What are the challenges and opportunities of African feminism? Can African feminism transform society, or does postcolonial African identity clash with women's freedom? Is there a tension in the very notion African feminist?</p> <p>In its short but impactful history, the feminist movement of Africa has been met with a vicious backlash and antagonism. The backlash has both strengthened and derailed the ambitions of African heritage feminists. Bringing social criticism and personal narrative together, <em>Can Feminism be African?</em> shows how patriarchy and culture stifle feminist spirit - and how we search through language, history, and soul to reawaken it.</p> <p>Written in the tradition of <em>The Right to Sex</em>, <em>The Soul of a Woman</em>, <em>Of Africa</em> and other books that unwaveringly ask the hard questions about feminist- and/or African revolution, <em>Can Feminism be African?</em> exactingly explores feminist awakening in relation to Africa.</p> <p>In a first of its kind book, author and social critic Minna Salami guides readers through a thought-provoking and emerging world of feminist thought.</p>

<p> <strong>Discover the secrets of upside-down management and doing the right thing with James Timpson's <em>The Happy Index</em>.</strong> </p> <p>With over 2,000 locations across the UK and overseeing multiple operations daily for the past two decades, it's fair to say that the CEO of the family-owned Timpson business knows a thing or two about running a successful company.</p> <p>What makes James Timpson's approach to collaboration, profit and success is simple: let the people you hire run your business.</p> <p>That might seem like a simple concept to a CEO, manager or director but if you think about the hundreds of meetings, hours lost from your day by responding to emails, signing off on projects and more, you will notice that you are still working in a traditional, top-down mindset. Doing this means the team you work with only see themselves as a cog in the machine instead of the trusted, valued colleagues that they are.</p> <p><em>The Happy Index</em> is structured into lessons that will equip you and the people you work with, with the tools and tactics to re-evaluate the ways you manage your business. Offering insight into the ways in which James has overseen the family business, he firmly believes that you will see the benefits of working with an upside-down mindset, not only for financial success but also your team's wellbeing and happiness.</p> <p>Really, though, it's easy. Turn up on time. Trust your team. Do your work.</p>
