In this special podcast, we are featuring students from the high school’s Africa elective course. This course offers a supplement to the mainstream history curriculum allowing students to explore alternative stories and perspectives within history and life. This podcast is compiled of a series of interviews, which explore several facets of African culture. Students discuss their intellectual and emotional discoveries surrounding protest music, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s literary work–specifically with Half of a Yellow Sun– the movie Ife– which offers insight into LGBTQ+ relationships in Nigeria– artistic resistance, and popular African poetry. We hope you enjoy!
