Mali Empire 1: BASIC NIGERIAN HISTORY #2

In this Episode of Basic Nigerian History, Dr Catel discusses beginnings of the Mali empire and the Sundjata Legend. He mentions the story of Sumanguru, the failed Wagadou empire, and how the manden and madinka people came out on top. BNH is going to be like a crash course on Nigerian history, but along the way will also touch on other parts of west African history.
