There are (hi)stories you were never taught in school.
Join Podcasters and Authors Chinny Ukata and Astrid Madimba on a whistlestop tour of the African nations
It’s A Continent delves into these stories and reveals an Africa as you’ve never read it before. Breaking down this vast, beautiful, and complex continent and exploring each nations’ unique history and culture, It’s A Continent highlights the key historical moments that have shaped each nation and contributed to its modern global position.
This book aims to highlight the consequences of colonialism and how this legacy reverberates today, as well as how many African countries continue to re-build in its wake. It is a bold and colourful corrective to the perception of Africa as a monolith. It reveals the fascinating, often overlooked, histories of its 54 nation states too often misrepresented, its inhabitants and its place in the world too often neglected.
