Department of History Podcasts
Africa Past & Present is a podcast about history,
culture, and politics in Africa and the diaspora. Hosted by Peter Alegi and
Peter Limb, the show highlights interesting people, ideas, and discussions
in African Studies from a wide range of disciplines and perspectives. Their
mission is to broaden access to cutting-edge knowledge about Africa and to
do so in a down-to-earth manner. Shows feature interviews with eminent
scholars and persons, commentary on current events, and key debates for
Africans at home and abroad. Africa Past and Present is hosted by AODL: the African Online Digital Library, and MATRIX.
In the Fall of 2008, the Department of History will be launching a podcast on Latin American history, featuring Professors Benjamin Smith and Jerry Garcia
