...Mugabe," says Sisulu. "So now that the electorate has spoken, there's no reason for their differences." Still, whatever the outcome of the election, ZANU-PF is showing little sign of meekly accepting the verdict of the electorate.

In other words, it's a party space. In one of the oaky rooms, the Los Angeles artist Eduardo Sarabia has opened a tequila bar. He made the blue-and-white-ceramic bar stand. He made the bottles. He even made the tequila. The press materials explain that it's not just a bar but an installation that "celebrates collaborative dialogue and community." In other words, a bar. You provide...
