There’s an idea that the colonisation of Africa simply happened. In fact, there’s very little in public discourse about how the process actually occurred or the reality that many African kingdoms fought major battles against the invaders.

The truth is, colonising Africa was hard. It took decades of war, thousands of lives, and in many places, the colonisers were actually defeated.

I’m going to tell you the story about some of them.

You won’t hear this in schoolbooks.
