We're back with a bonus episode before we return to season 3! We discuss the consequences of the trans-atlantic slave trade on the continent with our special guest, Karis. We talk about the notion of Africans selling other Africans into slavery by applying the correct lens to examine a pre-colonial continent, how the slave trade gave way to European colonisation and the importance of education and cultural exchange as a solution to diaspora wars.

You can follow Karis on Twitter: @friedricejim. Check out his blog on black history The Black Republic, as well as his Clubhouse discussion club the Black Republic.
