do you have any favorite sources for African history? or is it mainly like wiki-walking, forums, and googling, and just like ambient absorption from the internet?
like, I’ve been listening to Blowback and I keep thinking about how long it would take me to gather all that information without the podcast.
also @Sinister@hexbear.net because you mentioned a bunch of cool-sounding stuff
I know a little bit but I really wish I knew more.
googling “precolonial africa gay” is already really illuminating and i’ve only just started.
i’m looking at this and there are so many promising terms to google in it https://daily.jstor.org/the-deviant-african-genders-that-colonialism-condemned/
anyway thanks for pointing me in this direction, it’s fascinating
Its more like target research into a topic when I know I want to know about a certain country/person, with a few amount of randomly searching through the internet haha. There is often a lack of variety of sources sadly. There is some good stuff by the https://historyofafricapodcast.blogspot.com/2021/03/?m=0 History of Africa podcast however.
That link was super interesting and I had never heard of any of that, thanks for the rec! I’ll be checking them out
