Ep. 2: A conversation with Priscilla Takondwa Semphere on storytelling
About this episode
Takulandirani! (That’s “We welcome you,” in Chichewa.) This week we launch the #SecondSaturday series, when we chat with an author about their book. Our guest is Priscilla Takondwa Semphere, who talked about her book, Ekari Leaves Malawi. Priscilla is a student at Smith College who also writes for the Huffington Post. Our conversation with Ms. Semphere begins at 4:12. In our chat with Priscilla, we talked about the Ekari book series and African storytelling more broadly.
