Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
The bend skin, the dance from Douala that bends the body sideways and refuses to straighten up. The music is fast, the hips are lower than you think possible, and the energy is relentless. Every Cameroonian who has danced bend skin knows the lower you go, the more respect you earn on the floor.
You observe Togo's distinctive animals including African elephants, spotted hyenas, various antelope species, and crocodiles in its savannas and waterways. You find that Togolese households commonly keep dogs, cats, and goats as pets and working animals. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
