Lumumba’s Africa | The Berlin Conference

In the current episode of Lumumba’s Africa, we delve into one of the most consequential events in African history—the Berlin Conference. This meeting of European powers redrew the map of the continent without a single African voice at the table. Professor PLO Lumumba explores how arbitrary borders, colonial exploitation, and the brutal partitioning of Africa set the stage for decades of conflict, economic disparity, and cultural disruption.
