Author: Brian Olemo

What is our role as the fourth generation of African leaders in the emancipation of our continent & its peoples? Why & how can we participate effectively in the politics of our countries to bring about fundamental change? How can we employ the right ideological tools to make heads and tails of Africa's grand political casino? This podcast seeks, through discussions, to answer these questions.
