Africa Past and Present: Episode 57
Africa Past and Present is co-hosted by Michigan State University historians Peter Alegi and Peter Limb and produced by Matrix.
Episode 57 features African activists Eddie Daniels and Christine Root, who discuss spending a lifetime working for African liberation. Daniels work in South Africa led to his imprisonment alongside Nelson Mandela on Robben Island from 1964-1979, while Root worked in solidarity with such struggles from the U.S. as Associate Director of the Washington Office on Africa.
The African Activist Archive, a Michigan State University project cosponsored by Matrix and the African Studies Center, preserves records and memories of ordinary Americans supporting the African fight against colonialism and apartheid.
