African Roots Podcast
DW.COM | Deutsche Welle
African Roots podcast introduces men and women who shaped Africa's past, present and future. It meets big names, and tells the story of others who have stayed out of the spotlight. Their stories range from heroic to tragic. Some affect our lives today, while time has buried the legacy of others. But what binds them together, is their African Roots.
