Ep 12- Talking Pan African Comics & Animation with Kugali

Today’s guests are a perfect example of how geekdom empowers you and you can empower the world through your geekdom.

We have three guests: Tolu Olowofoyeku, Olufikayo Adeola (Ziki), and Hamid Ibrahim, all from the Kugali.com website. I first met Tolu and Ziki about five or six years ago when they were just starting something called the Tao of Otaku podcast, which tried to bring to light all the African comics, animation, and TV that was in the SF&F genres. As the years went by, they grew bigger and bigger, created Kugali.com, began to create and help creators of original African genre content, and most recently even signed a deal with Disney for one of their stories.

Their geekdom empowered them and now they are empowering the creators of an entire continent, helping everyone rise with the tide. As you listen, pay specific attention to the sacrifices made along the way and the different times they had to choose the right path. It is fascinating to listen.
