How Nollywood Changed Nigerian Film

from Uncultured

When VHS tapes filled with low budget flicks flooded the streets of Lagos, Aba and Kano in the early 90’s, they would birth Nollywood - Nigeria’s very own film industry. This episode’s flashback stars Boj, our guide through Nollywood’s theatrical past to its globally acclaimed present. Joined by Anita Eboigbe, co-founder of Inside Nollywood, a newsletter that goes behind the scenes of Nigerian film, the two reminisce on the movies that made the industry. The show will be going on an end of year break. On behalf of the whole Culture Custodian team, here's wishing you all happy holidays. Catch you in the New Year. Hosted on Acast.

Give us a listen and learn something funky fresh. JungleRose Podcast JungleRose JungleRose is a podcast curated to amplify the voices of black women. Black women are misunderstood, undervalued, and overlooked. We are often perceived as ghetto, bossy, unintelligent, angry, promiscuous, less important, and uncultured, just to name a few things we are labeled as. Nah, sis that ain't us! LOL! This community will be a pipeline for change, challenging the false narratives, understanding the complexities, and celebrating the resilience of black women through conversation and storytelling. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. The Uncultured Saints Higher Things, Inc. We’re told the same thing over and over. Christianity doesn’t fit with today’s culture. The thing is, it isn’t the culture saying it. It’s the church. We’ve done a great job figuring out what we’re not. Sometimes we forget what we are. We’re the saints, washed in the blood of the lamb. We’re sinners Jesus made holy. This defines us. There are places Christianity doesn’t fit with today’s culture because Christianity isn’t bound by culture. We’re free in Christ to be uncultured. Not against it. Not apart from it. Undefined by it, because we’re defined by something greater. Join Pr. Goodman and Pr. Lietzau, the uncultured saints, as we tackle today’s issues through the lens of the Lutheran Confessions and find answers to today’s questions rooted in a timeless truth in Christ.
