Program Title: World War I in Africa
Description: This year marks the centennial anniversary of the First World War, however the story of the Great War has always overlooked Africa. Tens of thousands of African lives were lost at home and abroad, defending the interests of foreign powers and the lives of complete strangers during the war. The World War I in Africa project aims to bring this to light. With photos, cartoons, maps and caricatures, the project aims to challenge the normative narratives of WWI and also to change the usual narrators.

We interview Kathleen Bomani. Kathleen is a Tanzanian cultural activist and consultant. Her interests lie in creating space for nuanced in-depth African stories. She works at the intersection of art, governance and home grown innovation, with a special focus on the politics of identity.
