Patrick Oh!

another remarkable episode of a time and place in history that I knew nothing about. I always seem to get sad and start to cry at the end. It seems like we humans can’t really avoid our fate, the cycle of creation and destruction, with probably corruption in the middle. The best history podcast out there. Thank you!

Hi Paul! Is it possible for you to post just the vimeo link in this comment? The vimeo app on Android won't open the video and provide the prompt "Sorry something is wrong"

Thanks for another ejoyable episode. Perhaps the phrase "Africa's greatest civilisation" is used too much (for both the Songhai and Moroccon); many would accord that accolade to Egypt or even Carthage. I do find your implied criticism of the West impinges at times ("predatory Europeans"), especially skating over the fact that it was the West that abolished slavery first and even enforced it in places (the Royal Navy for over 150 years, at some cost of lives and money) - African countries were the last to make it illegal, and even now have the most slaves still. It did not "end in the 19th Century".

This episode means so much to me. I'm biracial and with everything going on in the world today I really want to start investing time getting to know the African side of my heritage better. This episode has been a great first step in that direction and I am super excited to share this story with my children and family. Thank you so much

As always, full of nuance, and yet the same old dynamics... Ta muchly.

I found this presentation extremely informative. So much more than I was expecting with the ties to events and the West and in America and the reasons for the beginning of the slave trade era between Africa and the Americas.

I watched the Songhai Empire last night and it was superb! Thank you and congratulations.

David Yves

Absolutely beautiful. Wonderfully written. Filled in a big gap in my knowledge and I’m so grateful for that!

Kenneth Beck

Fantastic episode. Who is the artist that made those wonderful portraits of the kings?

Just subscribed because I enjoyed this episode so much, working through them all now.
