NEWS + UPDATES

We are a voice
for informed scholarship and justice

We offer deepened analysis on the Congo, and seek to offer an informed and nuanced narrative that replaces the often distorted presentations of the Congo. We also support expansion of teaching on Congo in American universities, as part of broader support for the field of African Studies.
