With this episode of Guerrilla History, we bring you another fascinating episode in our series African Revolutions and Decolonization. This time, a big episode on mining in Congo - extraction, exploitation, environmental and economic impacts, as well as the history, regional variations, and the difference between industrial mining and artisanal mining in Congo. For this, we are lucky to be joined by Ben Radley as a guest host, and two excellent guests from the Congo - Josaphat Musamba and Germain Ngoie Tshibambe. Given their academic work on this, plus Josaphat's actual experience as a miner himself, we could not ask for a better group to unpack this! Share widely to help others understand this remarkably pivotal industry. Also be sure to check out our two previous episodes from the series on the Congo (The First, and The Second). Lastly, check out the Centre of Expertise on Mining Governance.
