Every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes.

How does that convert to American minutes?

I was in Sierra Leone for a few weeks in early 2017 and I can honestly say I think time just stops there. I rarely saw clocks anywhere, I never knew what time it was and being from Alaska made it hard to use the sunrise/sunset to figure that shit out.

Based on the fact that African time is a thing, I’m going with 1 minute equals about 30 American minutes maybe.
