Dr. Bonny Ibhawoh: Restorative Justice

Dr. Bonny Ibhawoh: Restorative Justice

Author: Samba September 20, 2021 Duration: 50:46
In this episode, Dr. Bonny Ibhawoh explains Restorative Justice and its applicability to hot spots in West Africa. We also explore the ongoing consequences of colonial strategies on education in Africa and in the diaspora and the case for reparation, if any. He also talks about Africa's integration in terms of practical and powerful regional unions.

Hosted by Samba, Unmuted Africa is a conversation rooted in Pan-African thought, but one that refuses to speak in abstractions. This is a space for learning and unlearning, where the central, recurring question isn't just about identity but about practical liberation: what does it truly mean to be of African descent in a world shaped by historical and ongoing systems? Each episode tackles that complexity head-on, examining specific societal structures, cultural pressures, and philosophical frameworks that define the modern experience. The discussions move beyond diagnosing challenges to actively explore pathways forward, arguing that genuine freedom is inextricably linked to a conscious re-engagement with cultural roots. You'll hear explorations of history, critiques of contemporary narratives, and deep dives into the idea of re-Africanization-not as a return to a mythical past, but as a deliberate, living process of reclamation and self-definition. The tone is thoughtful, the perspective is unapologetically centered, and the goal is to amplify voices and ideas that are too often sidelined. Tune in for a podcast that treats culture as a dynamic blueprint for the future, not merely a relic of the past.
