- My New History Addiction
I’m a sucker for history shows, and this one crackles with the voices of Africa’s past—not the stiff, mothballed accounts of settlers, traders, and armchair academics, but the real stories, the oral histories passed down through generations, alive with wit, wisdom, and fire. It doesn’t just tell history; it sings it, drums it, dances it into your ears until you can feel the dust of ancient trade routes beneath your feet. Totally addictive—even for a mzungu like myself. What a blast!

United Kingdom6 years ago - Absolutely stunning
I am a mother of African teenagers who realized with horror that they new more about Western history than they did about their own heritage, narrative and their rich history. I realized that their young minds where whitewashed by the popular story of Africa as told on news channels - a poor, disease riddled place rather than the wealthiest place on earth, straining to find its way after 100 years of economic, cultural and social raid. So I am on a mission to rest their minds , and I applaud your... more
