This episode is about Mohamed Hashim Mattar but it's also a message to every single Sudanese person and the world.
حرام علينا لو دم الشهيد راح
Shame on us if the blood of the martyr goes to waste.
A phrase Mohamed Hashim said before he himself was martyred.
Episode Summary: Destined for failure- Panafricanism part 2.
In this episode, We explore how colonial structures were deliberately engineered to stifle Africa's progress, foster disunity, and create long-standing conflicts, such as tribal wars, economic dependency and a rigged educational system.
These structures continue to perpetuate a false narrative that Africa is dependent on external powers when, in truth, the world heavily relies on Africa’s natural and human resources.
The episode highlights the powerful examples of Pan-Africanist leaders like Thomas Sankara, it also discusses how the Rwandan conflict serves as a haunting example of how colonial powers sowed seeds of division.
we reflect on the unifying policies of Kenyatta’s Harambee philosophy, Nyerere’s Ujamaa policy And ‘om al shaheed omy, dam al shaheed Damy’ a protest chant in sudan which translates to the mother of the martyr is my mother and the blood of the martyr is my blood which all emphasise the importance of familyhood, collective progress, and shared responsibility.
These policies embody the essence of Pan-Africanism: the belief that Africa is strongest when united.
Pan-Africanism not just as an ideology, but as a practical tool to overcome the barriers of division and build a prosperous future.
let us be clear: we are not destined for failure.
Tune in for an eye-opening journey through history, leadership, and the enduring vision of an Africa united.

In this episode, we explore the profound legacy and ongoing relevance of Pan-Africanism. From the visionary leadership of figures like Patrice Lumumba to the founding goals of the Organization of African Unity, we reflect on how unity and solidarity have shaped Africa’s path toward liberation & examine how leaders have upheld or betrayed the Pan-African ideal & their limitations to reach their goals.
Africa is the cradle of life, the heartbeat of the Earth and the future of the world.
Through it all, we challenge ourselves to consider our role in this movement for justice, self-determination, and collective strength. Tune in for a deep dive into Africa's past, present, and future, united under the banner of Pan-Africanism.
‘The forces that unite us are intrinsic & greater than the superimposed influences that keep us apart’- Kwame Nkrumah.
