We hope this will help you deconstruct and build on the sometimes inaccurate, mostly light-touch history we all have picked up about the region and the communities found here. From events that shaped our history to people that had a different vision for their communities, we will cover it all.https://relearn-our-history.captivate.fmfalseepisodicnopodcastUnited States of Africa: A pipe dream?United States of Africa: A pipe dream?Join us on the Relearn Our History podcast as we dive into the complex world of African country unification. From historic federations like the Ghana–Guinea–Mali Pact to modern day examples like Tanzania’s union, our discussion explores what has worked, what hasn’t, and why. We also examine global perspectives, economic considerations, and the political dynamics that shape Africa’s pursuit—or avoidance—of unification.

Listen to the lively debate with my my guest, Dr. Wale Aboyade, on what is practical and what would be optimal.
