The FTLA Podcast
Welcome to The FTLA(For The Love of Africa) Podcast,
FTLA is a cultural brand, a social movement, and a tribe of young Black men and women in the diaspora.
Our goal is to bring Black people of all backgrounds together, and celebrate our history, culture, and accomplishments. Through various events and thought-provoking discussions, we hope to showcase diversity among Black peoples, and celebrate Black excellence. We also hope to discuss the issues that continue to plague Black people all over the world, especially in Africa.
In this podcast, we will visit and revisit the history of African independence movements, ongoing crises on the continent, but also shine a lot of light on the progress made, and the amazing work of young Africans all over the world.
Thank you for tuning in,
FTLA
