Faloyin’s voice is both journalistic and conversational — equally at ease satirising colonial legacies and celebrating the joys of pan-African identity.Why we chose it: "So much of the history of Africa has been written by people who were not only not from the continent, but actively despised it... It is time to tell the story of a continent that has been long misunderstood."Delicious drinks are included, as well as engaging storytelling and space for conversations and sharing your own journeys across countries and continents.Interested?
