  • “These Girls’ Fashion is Sick!”: An African City and the Geography of Sartorial Worldliness

As an urban feminist geographer with a research interest in African cities, I was initially pleased when the web series, An African City, debuted in 2014. The series was released on YouTube and also available online at www. anafricancity.tv. Within the first few weeks of its release, An African City had over one million views. Created by Nicole Amarteifio, a Ghanaian who grew up in London and the United States, An African City is offered as the African answer to Sex and the City, and as a counter-narrative to popular depictions of African women as poor, unfashionable, unsuccessful and uneducated. small coins.net

Small Coins.net May 2026

Within a month, smallcoins.net had a following. People started sending Leo photos of their own small coins—not investments, not rarities, just the forgotten change from a coat pocket, a car ashtray, a jar on the kitchen counter. He posted them with the owners' stories. A battered euro from a goodbye at a train station. A arcade token from a father who’d promised to come back. A 1937 nickel found under the floorboards of a childhood home.

Not the valuable kind. No silver dollars or buffalo nickels. Just the leftovers of a lifetime of careless spending. Worn-down pennies from the 1970s, a few Jefferson nickels with the steps worn smooth, a single dime so thin it felt like foil. Foreign coins from trips he barely remembered—a French centime, a British 2p, a Canadian quarter with a chipped edge. The smallest of small coins.

The tin sits on his desk now, not in the closet. Sometimes, when the day is hard, Leo picks out a single penny, rubs his thumb across its face, and remembers.
