Moufida Tlatli (1947 - 2021), the Tunisian director, is seen by many as the first female Arab filmmaker to achieve global acclaim. Her 1994 Film 'The Silence of the Palace' won several international awards including at Cannes. What's your favourite of her films? #TunisianCinema

I like to listen to the occasional true crime podcast once in a while and I find myself reacting to it like a Tunisian grandma muttering expressions like: "yikebb sa3dou" "ya 9atel errou7 win trou7", "ellotf rabi yoltef bina", etc.

Every pride month Arab queers & allies remember this beautiful soul in the hope that one day we can put all the pain and injustice behind us. Rest in power Sarah Hegazi.

Very shy (and excited) about this but: I will be playing some of my North African favorite music (records&digital) for @TheLotRadio next Monday from 10am to 12pm. A bit of funk, chaabi, raï, mezoued, hiphop, dnb. Here is the link if you'd like to tune in:

We are an independent, non-profit, online radio station live streaming 24/7 from a reclaimed shipping container on an empty lot in NYC. Expect a continuous stream of the best and most varied music...

Pour le tunisien qui en a les moyens, il faut des mois pour obtenir un visa de tourisme. Pour les autres, le visa une utopie. Dans le même temps, un européen multi condamné peut entrer en Tunisie juste avec sa carte d'identité. Ca ose ensuite parler de "challenges communs"

Yes, this! There are so many examples of this in North African architecture. We not only have homes w/central courtyards that allow air to circulate but also underground homes. We whitewash the walls & use ceramic tiles (zellij) which would help keep the walls & floors cool.
Houses were built differently. I’ve been in 100+ degree weather in my home country of Portugal in the country side and was absolutely cool inside without fans or ac. Local stone is used and the vegetation/ trees all around help. Concrete and metal create more heat.

Nadhir Ben Ammou, ancien ministre proche d'Ennahdha, s'attaque en ce moment aux personnes homosexuelles (qui ne lui ont rien fait). Ça rappelle l'hypocrisie de bcp d'islamistes/conservateurs qui ne convoquent les libertés et les droits humains que quand ça les concerne. #Tunisie
