What does it mean to be an African today? Is race a qualifier, birth, culture, history etc? How do Gen Z Africans define themselves and how do they relate to Africa's contrasting depictions in popular movies like Black Panther to negative media stereotypes of famine and war. Join the A4D team with our special guest Yunia from Wanderings & Musing as we answer and discuss these cultural topics with a touch of history and statistics. The poem in this episode is an excerpt from a speech by former South African President Thabo Mbeki to the South African parliament on the passing of South Africa's new constitution on 8th May 1996. The first comprehensive post-Apartheid constitution. Feel free to leave a comment to let us know what you want to see more of!
