A year ago (June 2020) I had the pleasure of creating my very first podcast. The podcast was entitled “Beneath the slave tree” it was simply a narration of a story I wrote during quarantine. My inspiration for writing that story and subsequently creating the podcast Was to illustrate the value of history and more importantly the beauty of African history . This episode in particular explains the creative process behind creating the podcast, it also describes my childhood and ends with an acclamation of history .
