The end of 2021 marked Mabinty Magdalene Kamara’s first year as editor of Sierra Leone’s Politico newspaper. Kamara is one of only a handful of female editors in a country where the news media is still male-dominated and on a continent where women constitute just 22% of the people seen, heard or read about in the news. In this interview, Kamara discusses the challenges faced by women in journalism in Sierra Leone and the way she’s navigating times of crisis as a newspaper editor.
