AfriWetu Ancestor Stories Rooted In Our Story

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!

Thanks Nyambura for your incredible effort to put Africa herstory, history and military prowess on the map. Love the reference to other world events shedding light to this motherland under the Sun )completely transected equally by all the parallel latitudes killing the myth of “dark continent”.

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 work because it brings back the stories of our forefathers in a way that’s easily spread . Your podcast is our evening staple. May you see plenty of success!

History has always fascinated me, but I am learning a lot more than I imagined! From the soundtrack to the excellent story telling voice, but you can’t help but be pulled into this amazing journey through time. I need these stories to be longer.... maybe 31 min 😁😁😁
