Today on Lumumba’s Africa, the professor turns his attention to France, dissecting its Africa policy through President Macron’s modern maneuvering. As France faces military expulsions from Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger, he argues that Macron’s charm offensive is not a fresh start, but a sophisticated rebranding of the old system: Francafrique. Join us for a look at power, history, and Africa’s fight for true sovereignty.

Lumumba’s Africa focuses on the past and current issues affecting the African continent; Filmed amidst the beautiful landscapes of Kenya and hosted by Professor P.L.O. Lumumba, the show looks at the many dichotomies of Africa: why are some of the economies thriving while others stall; why conflicts emerge and refuse to die down, and why despite colonialism being ‘gone’, it still ruins the prosperity of nations.
