Final Project: For this final assignment, you will tell African history to a non-academic or non-history-minded audience. This is meant to be a more creative assignment (artistic ability is not judged, simply effort). Why does African history matter to 21st-century audiences? Here are the parameters:

1. It can take any form you’d like, including a traditional essay (limit of 1,000 words), Facebook posts/memes, blog posts, Tweets, a song, a graphic novel, a series of t-shirt designs, a TED talk … anything that communicates knowledge well. However, you must include a paragraph of at least 4 sentences justifying your decision. Why did you pick a medium? What are its strengths and weaknesses?
2. You need to include 8 sources with at least 4 primary sources. Cite them however you wish, just make sure that each piece of information has a corresponding source (for example: if you make a Twitter thread, include the source as an image or citation in each tweet; for a poem or such, include a footnote by each line that addresses a topic; etc.).
3. Complexity and detail still matter. A list of resources is attached
