I speak with Jonathan Reynolds about African Independence Movements in Algeria, Guinea, Senegal, Kenya, and Congo. Dr. Reynolds is a professor of African and World History at Northern Kentucky University and the former president of the World History Association. He is a wealth of knowledge on all things Africa and just an overall blast to speak with. You can also check out my episode with him on Africa and the Cold War.

Teddy Roosevelt and the Jews with Andrew Porwancher

Conversations in World History is a bridge to the past connecting scholars to people interested in the deeper meaning of history. Here, my informal chats with historians open up the past, their research, and major questions and debates in the field. These episodes should help us all engage in the fascinating conversations of world history and to hear from the people who are writing the next pages. 

The host, David Sherrin, is an author and award-winning social studies teacher. Check out other episodes and his books at www.davidsherrin.com.
