On this episode, we talk with a guest from Southern Cameroon, Tabot, about his country's ongoing conflict. Tabot schools us on Cameroon’s history, geography and political climate. We learn about the decades-long systemic marginalization of anglophone Cameroonians by francophone Cameroonians. And we discuss how this conflict is a remnant of colonialism by the Germans, French and British.
