Introducing Kenya's Pioneering Women-Only Ranger Squad

On the evening of Saturday, 20 September 2025, starting at 20:30 UTC, the world will be treated to a unique broadcast featuring South African artist Kutlwano Monyai and British-Nigerian composer Cassie Kinoshi. The event, spanning over 16 hours on the following day until 16:30 UTC, will reach cities such as Lagos, Cape Town, Nairobi, Delhi, Bangkok, Hong Kong, London, Berlin, Moscow, San Francisco, Edmonton, and New York.

Kutlwano Monyai, a pioneering artist, challenges environmental harm through their art, reclaiming ancestral wisdom and turning everyday materials into powerful acts of resistance. The artist's work honours women's labour and is a testament to their creative strength.

Meanwhile, Cassie Kinoshi, a Berlin/London-based composer and saxophonist, will present a piece for the Campus of the Beethovenfest on 21 September 2025. Her music traces her roots in Nigeria, offering a captivating blend of cultures. Kinoshi, who leads the ensemble Seed, is also known for her commitment to promoting diversity in the music industry.

In a separate yet interconnected realm, Violet Awo Amoabeng, the creator of an edible skincare brand, prioritises both skin health and environmental sustainability. The brand uses raw Ghanaian ingredients, taking zero shortcuts in its production, and does not use any preservatives. This commitment to natural, sustainable skincare products reflects a growing trend towards eco-conscious consumerism.

The broadcasting hours for this cultural extravaganza have been tailored to accommodate each city's time zone, ensuring that as many people as possible can participate in this global event. More details about the art-related facts will be revealed in the coming weeks, promising an enriching and unforgettable experience for all. Stay tuned for updates!
