A gift from the Angel Golden (@华中邝徒) For Lingling’s brand event in Wuhan, they commissioned a traditional Hunan embroidery, one of CN’s four great embroidery styles and an intangible cultural heritage with over 2,000 years of history. In ancient CN, embroidery was a gift for loved ones — each stitch a tender thread of affection and longing. Every stitch is filled with love, blessings, and care for Lingling. With special thanks to the Hunan Embroidery Research Institute for turning our emotions into something so beautiful, and to every fan who keeps sharing love through the warmth of Chinese heritage. #linglingkwong #หลิงหลิงคอง #AngelGolden linglingsirilak

The Union of Palestinian Women’s Committee is a feminist organization that was founded in 1980 and aims at empowering women and fighting all kinds of discrimination. The Union was targeted by the military occupation multiple times including in 2022 and most recently in 2024 when all their offices got bombed. Donate now: The Sameer Project recently collaborated with the UPWC to launch the “Stitch & Story Initiative” that aims to empower women in Southern Gaza through training in traditional Palestinian hand embroidery. The initiative seeks to enhance their financial independence and provide a secure source of income amid difficult economic conditions. Additionally, it will help women overcome the psychological challenges they face, alleviating mental burdens through creative activities that foster stability, hope, and self-confidence. The initiative also aims to preserve national identity by promoting Palestinian heritage and traditional attire. 15 women will be trained and each one will receive a training kit containing embroidery tools and materials to start producing embroidered items. The kit includes: Aida cloth, fabrics, colored silk threads, fabric scissors, thread, scissors, thimble, embroidery needles, marking pen, chalk, notebook and pen, and embroidery accessories. The Union will work closely with the women for 6 months not only on stitching but also marketing and selling their work. This project will cost $15,000. Stitching in Arabic is called “tatreez” a tradition that has been inherited for generations. Please support us in preserving our culture and increasing the agency of women during these difficult times. Support our South Campaign to aid this project and other future projects supporting women: Open the borders. Aid MUST ENTER. Help our project do what we can until supplies run out.

Dear Ethiopians, Somalis and Djiboutians On behalf of the Somali Regional State, I extend my profound congratulations on the historic inscription of "Xeer Ciise: Oral Customary Laws of Somali-Issa Communities" into UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage List. This momentous achievement is a beacon of pride for all of us, symbolizing the enduring legacy and rich cultural heritage of our people. The recognition by UNESCO not only elevates the status of our traditional laws but also underscores the global significance of our cultural practices. Xeer Ciise, a cornerstone of our social structure, has long been a guiding force for peace, justice, and community cohesion among the Somali-Issa. This acknowledgment by the international community reaffirms our commitment to preserving these invaluable traditions. Let this celebration be a reminder of our collective responsibility to nurture and safeguard our cultural heritage for future generations. It's an invitation to deepen our engagement with our customs, fostering a sense of unity and shared identity across our borders. May this recognition inspire us to continue our efforts in promoting dialogue, cultural exchange, and mutual respect among our communities, ensuring that our legacy, like Xeer Ciise, remains vibrant and alive. I would like to thanks all those who contributed to this process particularly the Sitty heritage foundation. Thanks to the team that represented the community and the three countries including Minister Dauud Aweys, Minister Hibo Moumin, Ambassador Mahlet Hailu, Ambassador Ayeid Mousseid, Dr Hussein Kasim, Warsan Awil, Ayan Ali, and Abdirahman Osman, With utmost respect and congratulations,

The Comoros is now claiming that Alindi is part of their culture! 😬🤦🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️ Across the Horn of Africa, many ethnic groups are strangely obsessed with Somali culture, constantly claiming elements of our heritage as their own. The question is, why don’t they take pride in what they have? And if they have no history or cultural legacy to stand on, why not create something unique for themselves? Everyone is welcome to celebrate our culture, but it becomes pathological when you start claiming what clearly isn’t yours. Alindi is a traditional Somali fabric, handwoven in coastal cities and worn by Somali women for generations. It was mentioned by Ibn Battuta in 1330 during his visit to Mogadishu, and it was traded widely across the seas, reaching as far as the Arabian Peninsula and India. Alindi is a symbol of Somali craftsmanship and cultural identity. I call on the Somali Ministry of Youth and Culture to officially register traditional Somali clothing, such as the Dirac and Alindi, as part of Somalia’s intangible cultural heritage through international platforms like UNESCO and similar global registries. We’re tired of this relentless obsession with Somali heritage. It’s time to protect and internationally recognize what rightfully belongs to us.

Arthur Rubinstein performs Chopin’s Nocturne in D-flat major, Op. 27 No. 2, during his celebrated recital in Moscow on 1 October 1964. The most striking feature of this work both technically accomplished and profoundly symbolic — lies in the structural relationship between the left and right hands, which is clearly established from the very first page of the score. The left hand, representing Discipline and Order, provides a continuous, flowing accompaniment in 6/8 time. It establishes a broad, seamless, and unwavering harmonic foundation. This part symbolises an ordered universe governed by law and harmony, rather than chaos. The beautiful, soaring, and freely expressive melody of the right hand can only achieve its full radiance and meaning when it rests upon this firm and stable foundation. Should the left hand falter, the right hand, however exquisite, would lose its balance and true beauty. The right hand, representing the Soul and Freedom, begins with a sustained note before unfolding a lyrical melody marked dolce. This cantabile line moves with complete freedom and grace, adorned with delicate fioriture — ornamental passages that evoke fervent prayer or heavenly song descending from above. Drawing upon the traditions of classical musical aesthetics, three principal reasons explain why this Nocturne continues to be deeply cherished by those who uphold our cultural inheritance: The Nocturne in Op. 27 No. 2 possesses a rare purity and sanctity. Listeners attuned to traditional culture often feel that the music creates a space of spiritual clarity, in which the anxieties, distractions, and coarseness of everyday life are gently washed away, allowing the soul to rise towards what is noble and transcendent. In the traditional understanding of art, a truly great musical work serves as a mirror reflecting the harmonious order of the universe and the created world. This Nocturne is one of its most refined expressions. Although it adheres strictly to the classical laws of harmony, It is not dry or merely academic. On the contrary, it overflows with genuine emotion. Its power lies in a miraculous union: the free and soaring melody of the right hand attains its full sublimity only when supported by the disciplined, architecturally firm foundation of the left hand. This musical truth reflects a profound principle of life itself — that man finds true peace, freedom, and authentic happiness only when he lives in accordance with the natural order and the fundamental moral laws. Chopin composed this work in such a manner that it demands the most refined control of touch and tone, requiring the piano to sing with true bel canto purity. Traditional musicians have long prized this quality, for it restores music to its rightful nature: a sacred medium of communication from heart to heart, and from the human soul towards the divine. This Nocturne does not “tell a story” in any literal sense — something Chopin rarely attempted. Instead, it invites each listener to experience it personally. This very openness is one of its greatest attractions for those who cherish tradition: it suggests and elevates rather than imposes.

This recording presents Vivaldi’s Spring (La Primavera) as performed by the Netherlands Bach Society, with Shunske Sato as solo violinist and director. It is a performance in the historically informed style, seeking to recreate the manner in which Baroque music would have been played in Vivaldi’s own time, the eighteenth century. What distinguishes this interpretation is its complete fidelity to the original Baroque idiom. The musicians employ period instruments—gut strings and Baroque bows—producing a sound that is crisp, transparent, and restrained, with minimal vibrato and a faithful observance of the rhythms and ornamental practices of the era. The most striking and profoundly meaningful element in Vivaldi’s Spring (La Primavera)—In the traditional Western understanding—is the depiction of birdsong in the first movement and its striking contrast with the thunder and lightning that follow. Immediately after the joyful principal theme, Vivaldi employs three solo violins in harmonious interplay, using soaring trills and florid passages to evoke the joyous song of birds welcoming the spring. Yet this is swiftly succeeded by the darker, urgent tones of the full ensemble, conjuring a sudden storm with rumbling thunder and flashes of lightning. When the tempest subsides, the birdsong returns in serene tranquillity. Vivaldi does not use his music to recount a personal narrative. Rather, he employs it as a lens through which the listener may observe the ordered harmony of the natural world. There is warmth and sunshine, there are storms, and then there is peace once more. In the traditional Western understanding, nature and the cosmos do not operate by chance but are governed by a supreme intelligence—the Creator. By composing a work in which nature unfolds according to discernible laws, with perfect balance between light and darkness, sunshine and rain, Vivaldi offers a direct celebration of this perfect order. It imparts to the listener a profound sense of spiritual reassurance and stability. The performer, in rendering the birdsong or the thunder, must set aside personal ego and strive to imitate and merge with nature in its purest form. The true artistry lies in transforming the instruments into the very voice of creation, resulting in a work of art for its own sake—one that preserves the pristine beauty of its subject. In short, this music is beloved because it conveys a vivid sense of life and joy, as though one were witnessing the true awakening of spring. It is neither pessimistic nor abstract, but intimately connected to daily life and to the ancestral way of perceiving the world—a world possessed of order, beauty, and worthy of celebration. It is this rigorous structure, faithful depiction, and respect for the laws of nature that have secured for Spring its enduring status as one of the most lasting cultural symbols across the centuries.

Immediately after the joyful principal theme, Vivaldi employs three solo violins in harmonious interplay, using soaring trills and florid passages to evoke the joyous song of birds welcoming the spring. Yet this is swiftly succeeded by the darker, urgent tones of the full ensemble, conjuring a sudden storm with rumbling thunder and flashes of lightning. When the tempest subsides, the birdsong returns in serene tranquillity. Vivaldi does not use his music to recount a personal narrative. Rather, he employs it as a lens through which the listener may observe the ordered harmony of the natural world. There is warmth and sunshine, there are storms, and then there is peace once more. In the traditional Western understanding, nature and the cosmos do not operate by chance but are governed by a supreme intelligence—the Creator. By composing a work in which nature unfolds according to discernible laws, with perfect balance between light and darkness, sunshine and rain, Vivaldi offers a direct celebration of this perfect order. It imparts to the listener a profound sense of spiritual reassurance and stability. The performer, in rendering the birdsong or the thunder, must set aside personal ego and strive to imitate and merge with nature in its purest form. The true artistry lies in transforming the instruments into the very voice of creation, resulting in a work of art for its own sake—one that preserves the pristine beauty of its subject. In short, this music is beloved because it conveys a vivid sense of life and joy, as though one were witnessing the true awakening of spring. It is neither pessimistic nor abstract, but intimately connected to daily life and to the ancestral way of perceiving the world—a world possessed of order, beauty, and worthy of celebration. It is this rigorous structure, faithful depiction, and respect for the laws of nature that have secured for Spring its enduring status as one of the most lasting cultural symbols across the centuries.

Today, my heart is heavy, yet stirred by the complexity of emotions that surround loss, resilience, and the enduring strength of the human spirit. I extend my deepest condolences to Mallam Nasir Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai, over the passing of your beloved mother is a profound loss that no words can truly heal. A mother is more than a parent; she is a foundation, a guiding light, a silent architect of the values we carry into the world. Her sacrifices, her prayers, and her love are forever etched in your life and in the lives of all she nurtured. I join you and your family in mourning her transition, while also celebrating a life that undoubtedly raised a son strong enough to withstand the fiercest storms. At the same time, your return to freedom after a period of detention speaks to a deeper truth about justice, perseverance, and the triumph of hope over adversity. It is a reminder that even in the darkest moments, the light of truth and resilience cannot be permanently extinguished. In moments like this, we are reminded that life is both fragile and powerful, fragile in its fleeting nature, yet powerful in the legacy we build and the battles we survive. May you find strength in the memories of your mother, comfort in the support of those who stand with you, and renewed purpose in this chapter of your life. May her soul rest in perfect peace, and may her legacy continue to guide your path. Stand strong, Mallam, You have endured, and you will rise even stronger. -DrMo
