🎉 Starting tomorrow 🎉 Listen to me reading my book, flaws and all 😊 One episode per week, 4 episodes scheduled. This took longer than expected. I did everything myself: recording, editing, thumbnails, etc.

East Africans resettle the African Imaginary | Yarri Kamara - Sooo Many Stories Yarri Kamara, after reading James Tumusiime’s What Makes Africans Laugh …
