Happy Africa Day!!!

from Learning Africa · host Amadou Dieng

Send us Fan MailSixty years ago, the world said Africa wasn't ready to govern itself. Africans decided not to wait for permission. In this Africa Day special, we mark what has actually been built since: the years of life gained, the democracies defended, the technology that leapfrogged a century of infrastructure in a decade. Honest about what's unfinished, yet, proud of what's real!Support the showEnjoyed this one? Got a take? A correction? A story I should know about? Come find me on Instagram @dieng_amadu or @afrovoices and tell me what you think. What landed, what missed, what you want more of. This show is built around the idea that Africa is not a simple story, and neither are the people listening to it. Your perspective is part of that. Slide into the DMs, leave a comment, or just tag me when you share it. I read everything.See you in the next one.
