Bill Gates has a gross infatuation with Africa's population and African women's bodies. He wanted to use the Continent for testing covid-19 vaccines, and walked it back after swift and rightly harsh criticism.

As Business Insider Africa highlights(link below) Africa's advantage over western hegemony is its population growth.
The need for these services is desperate both there and here in the US, and they know it.
In addition, this comes at a time when white christian nationalists have been sending "missionaries" seeding anti-democratic and anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric. And this is being launched under the Trump regime, so no oversight.
thank you so much for this note Missandei. You are raising an important point. Sitting in my drafts right now is my next piece on sovereignty and agency in women’s health innovation and this is exactly what I’ll be unpacking in my next essay. I’d love to hear your perspective when it drops!
I'm looking forward to it. I'm so glad I found your substack and YouTube channel. I turned 44 this year, and your work has given me a road map and the means to assemble a survival kit for what lies ahead.
