About this episode

TarikPodcast is happy to introduce our second episode:

The Battle of Adwa.

The Battle of Adwa is the second episode of a 3-part series where we will be covering the events taking place during before and after the legendary Battle of Adwa.

Today on Yekatit 23 we remember the heroes who risked their lives, the people who lost their lives to protect their country in the era of European colonization. ✊🏾

We hope our audience can learn from this fascinating moment brought to us by our ancestors.

Please join us as we tell our story for the world to hear.
