| The openDemocracy Show
On 25 September, a memorial service was held in the Kenyan capital honouring Charlie Kirk, the American right-wing influencer and Donald Trump ally who had been assassinated at a rally in the US weeks earlier. The vigil itself was largely unremarkable and, based on video footage seen by openDemocracy, poorly attended.

Este artículo se ha escrito con el apoyo de la Red de Investigaciones sobre la Selva Tropical del Centro Pulitzer. Este artículo se publicó por primera vez en África Uncensored. A unos 80 kilómetros (50 millas) de la ciudad de Kisangani, en la República Democrática del Congo, está el territorio de Isangi. A este lejano territorio se puede acceder en barco a través del río más profundo del mundo, el río Congo, o en moto tras un trayecto de cuatro horas por un camino polvoriento y sinuoso.
