Alune Wade - Homes United #3 (Humans City)
WITH its spotless new white-tile floors and gleaming stainless-steel ovens, the basement kitchen of Patisserie des Ambassades, a French cafe in Harlem on Frederick Douglass Boulevard, has the fit and finish of a laboratory. On a recent weekday morning, its two resident scientists — bakers in starched white coats — glazed mixed-berry tartlets and spread crème Chantilly over thin sheets of millefeuille pastry on a long steel table. But at the table’s opposite end was the kitchen’s resident artist, Ken Alice N’doye, preparing thiebu djen (cheb-oo JEN), Senegal’s national dish of rice cooked in a tomato-based fish stew. Although Ms. N’doye, 31, an owner of the cafe, also wore a crisp chef’s coat, her every move sprung from sensual, rather than technical, cues.
DAKAR, 6 September (IRIN) - A record number of illegal migrants reached the shores of the Spanish Canary Islands last weekend. Authorities reported that between Saturday and Sunday, 1,400 migrants, mainly from West Africa, arrived in eight canoe-style fishing boats that they believe left from Mauritania. The longer and riskier maritime route to the Canaries became increasingly popular this year after the shorter route through Morocco was cut off by increased patrols. Another route from North Africa into Sicily was stymied by Italian navy patrols. The journey from Senegal to the Canaries is approximately 1,500 km and can take anywhere from five to 20 days. Upon arrival, dehydrated and exhausted, those who have made the crossing face the possibility of repatriation to their respective countries.
ABUJA, Nigeria - Nigeria said Saturday it is ready to hand over Liberian warlord Charles Taylor to be the first former African head of state tried for crimes against humanity, making a reluctant move that will be a strong warning for other warmongers on the continent. Taylor is accused of starting a civil war in his homeland that brutalized tens of thousands of young boys and girls drafted as rebel fighters. He also is blamed for a savage war in neighboring Sierra Leone where rebels — including child fighters — terrorized victims by chopping off arms, legs, ears and lips.
