What's in a language - "Kill the tribe to build the nation?"

Africa has over 1000 native languages (some are on the verge of extinction) and because of colonialism European languages are also spoken. Our multilingual guest speakers Bagou (Guinea, Conakry), Nzinga (Angola) and Wilson (Mozambique) helped us tackle this topic.

In this episode, we tackle the importance of learning one's local language and why these shouldn't be repressed in modern day Africa. We also discuss two opposing concepts that illustrate the role of language;

"Kill the tribe to build the nation" by Samora Machel (signifying unity)

or "We shall return" by Agostinho Neto (signifying identity).
