S19EP1: Are diasporan Africans speaking over continental Africans? Pariah Nation
-
- Politique
Due to the global power imbalance caused by the colonial project, the Global North has a de facto monopoly when it comes to telling Africa’s story. This dynamic also means that continental African’s have a secondary role in telling their own story, even with a strong and active diaspora. In this episode, Nuura and I take a look at how this impacts the relationship between Africans on the continent and in the diaspora.
* Disclaimer- this podcast, regrettably, wasn’t wholly representative of the views of Africans that have lived outside the continent for long periods of time, however, we will most likely follow this episode up with one that is more representative in due course.
