Season 6 Episode 44
In this continuation of our African Revolutions and Decolonization series, we bring you another fascinating episode focused on precolonial Nigeria - the people's there, their history, the political systems, political economy, international relations, and more. We are fortunate to be joined by the person who wrote the book on this topic, Max Siollun, whose The Forgotten Era: Nigeria Before British Rule served as the major resource in creating this episode. We highly recommend checking out his book, from Pluto Press, and stay tuned for a future discussion with Max on post-colonial Nigeria!
Max Siollun is a historian. He has written several acclaimed books on Nigeria's history, including What Britain Did to Nigeria: A Short History of Conquest and Rule, which was shortlisted in BBC History Magazine's 2021 Books of the Year, and the focus of today's episode: The Forgotten Era: Nigeria Before British Rule.
