Episode Synopsis "Sọ̀rọ̀sókè - Who speaks for the continent and why does it matter?"

We had a super insightful chat with Yemisi Adegoke (@briticoyemo), the BBC’s Senior Reporter in West Africa, about who gets to speak about the continent and why knowledge politics are so contentious. We also discuss how useful social media outrage is in driving real, lasting change. Stay in touch with us at @betweenspacepod on Instagram and Twitter!
