#AfricaBuzz: Ghanaian women shaking things up with solar powered taxi

Big win for Africa with the Ghanaian women, who are qualified engineers, shaking up the taxi industry and creating a solar-powered taxi.

A big win for the #blacklivesmatter movement with the conviction of Derek Chauvin in the George Floyd case, still a long way to go but a step in the right direction.
