Yorùbá - History, Identity and the In-Between

Yorùbá — History, Identity & the In-Between is a narrative history podcast exploring the Yorùbá people of West Africa: their kingdoms, their wars, their philosophers, and the worlds they built before, during, and after colonialism.Hosted by Dr. Zack Shittu — technologist, photographer, and lifelong student of Yorùbá culture — each episode moves between the archive and the present day. From the rise and fall of the Oyo Empire to the invention of tradition under British rule, this podcast asks not just what happened, but what it means to know it now.
