I think I maybe cooked with this script. I have written 20 pages, which is just 3 chapters, and I have 4 chapters left to write. The pain is that my brain is already summarising the other chapters, but I'm so scared to edit what I already wrote.

I’m diving into the history of the Kingdom of Kongo, one of Africa’s most powerful states. Often mistaken for modern-day D.R. Congo or Republic of Congo, Kongo was primarily in northern Angola and thrived long before European interference.

I swear I'll focus this page on History... but it's that fact which motivates me to retweet this. We are in a period where information is easier than ever to fake. Full stop. Please stay vigilant, because this is as relevant for history as it is for anything else.

Hello, Bámiṣé here!
I'm working on a video about the Kingdom of Kongo and would love help from anyone who speaks Kikongo, Kituba, or Swahili. If you can help with correct pronunciations of names and places, or know someone who can, please DM me.
Thank you!

It’s easy to be sceptical of pan-Africanism. The notion that Africa isn’t just a geographical space but a metaphysical entity whose population, though genetically the most diverse on earth, shares culture, heritage and a common fate, can seem dubious. But, the idea is bred of necessity not genetics.
We must lead the world or be damned
To get us from the back of the global bus to its steering wheel, pan-Africanism needs to be internationalist too.

at the time when King Leopold was forcing Congo's population to produce rubber, the neighboring kingdom of Kongo, which was still independent, was experiencing a rubber boom, and the majority of the wealth was retained by the African producers.
