The podcast and book It’s a continent are two of the best contemporary introductions to the history and current affairs of African countries intended for a broad public. Created and produced by two British communicators with African origins, Astrid Madimba and Chinny Ukata, it explores in an entertaining and accessible way the history of each African country, dismantling myths and celebrating the cultural and historical riches of a set of countries and peoples that constitute a very large percentage of the world population. Together with the BBC journalist Matías Zibell, Madimba and Ukata will tell us how the idea for the podcast arose, and why it is important to communicate the reality of each African country to a world that still has much to learn and a long way to go in terms of decolonising.
