This is a fully remastered episode, which originally came out in April 2022
In this episode of Guerrilla History, we bring back Africana studies scholar, Professor Takiyah Harper-Shipman, to continue our conversation! This time, the discussion focused on the paradigm of ownership of development, China's role in Africa, and AFRICOM! If you haven't already listened to part 1 of the conversation, you should do so first, it will be a good primer for this episode.
