Join us for a compelling seminar exploring the complexities of conspiracy narratives in postcolonial Africa, focusing on themes like Freemasonry, homosexuality, and illicit enrichment. Through in-depth analysis, the session will delve into how these narratives reflect broader social, political, and cultural anxieties in contemporary African societies.
Our speaker, Rogers Orock (Lafayette College), will present fresh insights, followed by a thought-provoking discussion led by Katrin Pyper (University of Leuven) & Meredith Terreta (University of Ottawa).
