Klappentext
Join historian and anthropologist Luke Pepera on a journey through African history to discover the stories that still shape our culture today

'I love when a non-fiction book can transport you to the past . . . an eye-opening, exceptionally important book' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reader review 'Hugely readable' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reader review
Where do we come from? What defines us? And how might knowledge of deep history affect our understanding of our identity?
In Motherland , Luke Pepera traverses thousands of years to reveal the aspects of African identity that have characterised this epic history. From hip-hop's origin in traditional African word games to female-led societies, and from Mansa Musa to Chadwick Boseman, this is a personal, relevant and beautifully told account of the stories that have shaped Africa.
'A book we've been waiting for for far too long' PETER FRANKOPAN
