Welcome Guest Blogger Loomnie

by Kerim on May 2nd, 2009

I’d like to welcome our new guest blogger, Olumide Abimbola who bloggs under the name Loomnie. Loomnie is a PhD candidate at the Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology in Germany. He has a BA in Communication and Language Arts (Ibadan, Nigeria) and an MA in Development Studies (Uppsala, Sweden). His ongoing dissertation follows the international trade in second-hand clothing from the UK to Benin, and from Benin to Nigeria (the Nigerian government bans the importation of second-hand clothing).

During his stint as a guest blogging on Savage Minds Loomnie will be discussing commodities, things, and anthropology in present-day Africa.

Welcome Loomnie!
