South African women making it big in the world of brewing

A revolution is brewing in South Africa. Women are reclaiming their traditional role of making beer.

“Back in the days, brewing was a female thing. Over time it became industrialized and became a male thing. But, in the African culture, beers are still made by women only. In South Africa, more and more females are becoming part of beer brewing. It does make you proud that you are taking the whole thing back to where it started,” says Apiwe Nxusani-Mawela, the brewmaster and part owner at Brewhogs, a microbrewery in Kyalami, north of Johannesburg.

The difference with women brewing beer today is that they are bringing in the money.

“It’s extra nice when you’re making money from doing something that you like,” says Nxusani-Mawela with a chuckle.

Queer Icons, a breathtaking multimedia photography project by Mexican-American artist Gabriel García Román, shines a light on queer people of color. It re-frames the subjects into idols, with a halo in every piece.

“My images are visually giving power to a group of people that are generally disempowered. I want young people to see these images and see them as an example of someone powerful and noble that they can become,” Román told Fusion in an interview.

There were way too many amazing pieces to fit in one post, so take a look at the rest of this collection on his website.
