It's time for #EyalaReads, the weekly ritual that gives you #RecommendedRead articles about #Feminism, #WomensRights & #Africa (and that gives me a reason to remember and care what day of the week it is).

Grab a drink, grab a seat, it's reading time!

My favorite: I fangirled, learned and laughed a lot while reading this interview of @tiffmugo, is a co-founder of @HOLAAfrica (one of the best #Afrifem platforms out there).

Part of @SaalaJeng's excellent "Talking back" series on @africasacountry.

If you work/ are interested in the international development sector, read @ThatBoyKhalifax's critique of the (nonexistent) role of NGOs in the #COVID19 response in #Tanzania. We must do better.

Coming from a culture where mourning is a long & collective process, I don't know what to make of the rushed burials, or how to support the friends I can't hug. This piece by Eric Mwine Mujagu on attending his father's Zoom funeral 💔💔

Let's end on a hopeful note. @TheJamaJack celebrated her 30th birthday by penning a vulnerable and powerful "tale of growth, glory and gratitude." Happy birthday Queen!

That's it for these week! Enjoy, share with a fellow reader, and don't forget to tell me what you're reading. Happy Sunday and #HappyMothersDay to those concerned.

Thanks again for reading with me on Sundays.
