Do not pretend celebrity princess Meghan Markle can meaningfully advance the cause of racial justice | Sisonke Msimang
It’s difficult to criticise the politics of someone who has been on receiving end of so much racist vitriol, but there isn’t much substance to the DuchessI’ll be honest: I know nothing about the British royals. I have my plate full managing the shenanigans of my own recently coronated monarch, King Misuzulu, who heads the Zulu Nation, which means I have not paid much attention to the travails of the Markle-Windsor-Sussexes.

Athena review – brutal violence and bravura action in the Paris banlieues
Venice film festival: A staggeringly good opening set piece is the high point of Romain Gavras’s gritty thriller about police racismRomain Gavras’s new drama-thriller is about racism, violence and injustice in the Paris banlieues – broadly in the tradition of Mathieu Kassovitz’s La Haine and Ladj Ly’s Les Misérables.

Eats, hops and breeds: New Zealand’s worsening wallaby plague
A skilled hunter can shoot 100 of the invasive marsupials in a night. But with millions of hectares infested, some fear control efforts are too latePete Peeti flicks off the headlights, cuts the ignition and lets his truck roll quietly down a bush track, deep in the heart of New Zealand’s North Island. Twilight is slipping into night and rain is falling in thick drapes. “Close your door quietly when you get out,” Peeti says. He slings his gun over his shoulder and scans the track with high-tech
