In this week's episode of AFROFILES Gerardo and Ed explore Israel’s long history in Africa with Dr. Yotam Gidron, author of Israel in Africa: Security, Migration, Interstate Politics. Israel has long sought to cultivate relationships with African governments, beginning even before Independence swept the continent. Consequently, Israel-Africa engagements are wide-ranging, touching upon diplomacy, security, migration, and religion. However, as an actor in African affairs, Israel is often overlooked, owing in part to the divide between African Studies and Middle East Studies.
Our theme music is from RYYZN.
