Rohingya refugee artists fighting to keep their story alive
In Cox's Bazar, the world's largest refugee camp, three Rohingya artists are defying cultural erasure. Through painting, music, and photography, they preserve the memory of a people long persecuted in Myanmar. This Talk to Al Jazeera special looks beyond the headlines of displacement and genocide investigations into the creative resistance of a stateless community. As Myanmar continues to deny them recognition, these artists are fighting back with colour, sound, and story, refusing to let their heritage disappear.

Proud Webster eager to earn Lord's nod for WTC25 Final
The return of fellow all-rounder Cameron Green from back surgery means Webster has some competition on to retain his place in the Australian line-up, but the fact that Green will only play at Lord's as a batter means there may still be room for the confident 31-year-old. Webster is determined to make sure he stays at the forefront of selectors' minds and hoping it will help him get the chance to showcase his skills against South Africa at Lord's in the Ultimate Test. "I'd be hugely proud to represent the country in such a big game," Webster told ICC Digital. "The boys look forward to this fixture and the two-year cycles means there is a lot of cricket to get to this point and being a part of that I'm really proud of. "I'll be doing everything I can to try and play and show everyone what I can do."

Astrologer Susan Miller Makes 2025 Predictions for Famous Gemini Like Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp
Gemini season is in full swing! World-renowned astrologer Susan Miller gave Us the scoop on what the air sign — a.k.a., people born between May 21 and June 20 — can expect this season and beyond. Miller also shared her insight on what lies ahead for notable Geminis like Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie and Kendrick Lamar. Depp, who was born June 9, 1963, has his 'Sun in Gemini in the 11th house of hopes and wishes,' one of the reasons for his loyal fan base. With Geminis in their Emerald Year, 'all kinds of opportunities have been coming to him,' with projects likely being revealed next summer. 'He'll go into the best year of his life,' Miller says. Jolie's future is looking bright too. The actress (born June 4, 1975) has both her Sun and Mercury in Gemini, so she's a natural in the arts and communication. Though 2025 is 'really good' for the director, she could embark on a 'really tough job' next year. But with her Mars located in fierce Aries, she'll be fine. 'She'll dive in, try it out and succeed!' Astrologer Susan Miller Makes 2025 Predictions for Famous Tauruses Like Kelly Clarkson Another talented Gemini with much to look forward to is Kendrick Lamar, whose birthdate is June 17, 1987. Lamar is blessed with his Moon in Pisces, 'the best placement for a musician,' and the award-winning rapper and songwriter is entering 'a highly intense career phase' where 'everything he's worked for is coming to fruition.' He is on fire! Scroll on to see what else is coming up for the zodiac sign in terms of love, finances and friendship, plus Miller's predictions for the Olsen twins! There's no stopping girls and guys born between May 21 and June 20. 'Everything [they] do is fast,' the astrologer tells Us, describing them as 'alert, versatile and perceptive.' The air sign possesses strong mental skills and has a special way with words: two traits that shine in pursuits related to writing, public speaking and sales. There's also an undeniably playful and sunshine-like aura to the witty Gemini, causing them to 'appear younger than [their] years.' Sharp-minded Geminis have never been ones to shy away from hard work. Now, their efforts and diligence are paying off exponentially. 'It's the best financial [time] in 12 years for them,' Miller says. But if you think their bank accounts have been growing due to pure luck or get-rich-quick schemes, think again. 'They [make money] the old-fashioned way,' she asserts. 'No one can say they didn't deserve it, because they earned it.' Whether single or coupled up, love is definitely in the air. 'All Geminis have been very magnetic in the past 12 months,' notes Miller. 'If they met someone [within the last year], that person is likely to stick around for a very long time.' For those still on the hunt, she emphasizes not to stress as the coming fall looks promising for dating matters: 'The 10 days that follow [Oct. 2] are very important for getting out and for meeting people.' 'Since March 7, 2023, Saturn's been in the 10th house of honors, awards, achievement and fame, so the spotlight's been on them and they've had to measure up and learn something new,' Miller explains. But she advises Geminis not to allow work obligations to get in the way of nurturing friendships. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (June 13, 1986) are the perfect embodiment of Gemini twins. 'They're on a roll,' Miller says of the former actresses and masterminds behind luxury fashion label The Row. Between June 9 and June 30 of 2026, Gemini enters one of the most financially rewarding periods in the decade. Their line will be reviewed favorably. If they need more funds, investors will be lining up to write a check.
