Update: 2021-10-18
Description
AFROFILES is back! On this week's episode, we interview Nuotama Frances Bodomo, an accomplished filmmaker whose short film “Afronauts” retells the story of the Zambian Space Program. We talk about the strange and zany story of Edward Makuka Nkoloso and his plans for space travel, and along the way, we talk about African Independence, Afro-futurism, and the role of film in bringing history to audiences.
This week’s episode is part one of a two-part series about outer space and Africa produced by Ed and Leslie. Our theme music is from RYYZN.
