This week I am joined by the University of Arkansas Ph.D. candidate & Sturgis International Fellow Chase Barney. We discuss how he became interested in African history and about his dissertation looking into the social history of urban areas in Zimbabwe, specifically the Nation's capital Harare. Our conversation touches on the post-World War II recruitment of the British to Zimbabwe and the relationship of the former Southern Rhodesia with its regional neighbors. Join us for a talk about an often-overlooked region of the African continent. You can find Chase @chasebarney on twitter and you can find more information about the Mid-American Alliance for African Studies on twitter @MAAASnews or via their website https://www.midamericaallianceforafricanstudies.org/ You can follow Evoking History @EvokingH
