Africa Update is an occasional newsletter on African politics and culture.

It’s written by Rachel Strohm, who has been a keen observer of African politics since 2008. She’s currently based in Kenya, and has previously lived in the DR Congo, Ghana, Rwanda, and Uganda.

Africa Update comes out roughly once per month. It focuses on stories from across the continent which are insightful and underdiscussed, as well as great art and music.
