About this episode
The episode explores the current state of Pan-Africanism and the challenges facing African unity and trade.
63 years ago, African leaders dreamt of unity, liberation and shared prosperity. Decades later, intra-African trade is still struggling, conflicts keep erupting, and a common currency? Still a pipe dream. Eddy Micah Jr. sits down with Nanre Nafziger, Pan-Africanist Activist Solidarity Collective, and DW's Eric Mawuena Egbeta (Ghana) to ask the questions nobody's answering.
