Hello Listeners! It is Episode 3!

This is the first of the African Civilisation Series - The Kingdom of Mapungubwe. The significance of this kingdom is explained in the show, one that extends beyond the borders of Southern Africa, to the continent as a whole. As part of the research done into this kingdom, there were a number of sources, which shall be shared on AfriWetu's social media pages in the coming days, please be sure to check them out, & share any other links/sources you come across (tag us!). (You can also leave a voice message on the Anchor platform, would love to hear your thoughts and feedback on the show - might even play it!)

*A huge thank you to the most wonderful director and human Mwendwa Mbugua of Kijiji Entertainment and to the fantastic producer Lee Kanyottu of Big City Studios - the two of them do the hardest part and make me sound professional…*

All the music/sound effects (credits below) used have been sourced & the slick arrangement done by Big City Studios, and a good reason why the episode sounds this good! (All spoken word mistakes are mine and mine alone!).
