Racism for Sale
In February 2020 a shocking video began to circulate on Chinese social media. A group of African children are being instructed, by a voice off-camera, to chant phrases in Chinese.

The clip ignited outrage in China and beyond. But no one ever answered the crucial questions: Why was this filmed? Where was it shot? Who made it? These questions send 成人论坛 Africa Eye reporters Runako Celina and Henry Mhango on a journey into a Chinese video-making industry that exploits vulnerable children across the continent.

Kenya's Killer Roads
Have the network of roads which criss-cross Kenya become death traps? Between 2020 and 2021 Kenyan road deaths rose more than 20 per cent.
