And more critically, again from the paper named above:

"To consign #Arabic, script and civilzation, to the category 'non-African' is to perform a historical erasure with a triple consequence: the erasure of a millenium-long early cosmopolitanism driven by the Arabic script; its displacement by a claim that #Africa lacks a written tradition, and that the African tradition is oral, making the story of #Ethiopia and the #Amharic script another #Semitic exception in the African story; and finally, the identification of the written tradition in Africa with the dominance of #European power, the spread of European languages and overwhelming presence of the #Latin script."

The #African languages #Swahili and #Amharic are beginning to be taught in #Russian schools. This was announced by the Director of the Institute of Asian and African Studies at #Moscow State University Alexei Maslov. https://canada.unofficialbird.com/nexta_tv/status/1637540149583044608#m

This is ሆድየ By Zamenu Nega; a #pop #song from #Ethiopia 🇪🇹, released last year, blending #traditional and modern #music in a joyous and danceable way.
What's that? You don't read #Amharic?
It's "hodiye", which means "stomach". That may seem a bit unusual, but emotional embodiment varies a lot by #culture, so this likely refers to a "stomach" #emotion.
There are some minor appearances of the krar, plus blending the beat and traditional #percussion is well done.

These letter frequency heatmaps for #Amharic and #Tigrinya are derived from #Unicode's Unilex project (https://github.com/unicode-org/unilex). While the data is in need of some refinement, the heatmaps give a sense of priority for glyph creation:
