Wouldn’t have been possible without my collaborators and amazing Explained team:
associate producer, the brilliant: @tyyhe!
production assistant: Jocelyn Ramirez
archival gods: @arshharjani and Liam Brooks
supervising producer @hellofromcath
show runner/the queen: @clairedon

[Haimy Assefa @haimyassefa]

Gah! @KekePalmer narrated this episode. An absolute gem!

[Haimy Assefa @haimyassefa]

In the span of 20-some minutes, we dive into public/personal apologies, restorative justice, truth and reconciliation commissions - exploring apologies for horrific acts of violence.

Narrated by Ms. “Sorry to that man” herself, @keke!

An absolute pleasure to direct!

when exploration of history isn’t completely Eurocentric. “It was the Africans who, in the early-15th century, sent ambassadors out into strange and distant lands.”
looking forward to reading @KrebsVerena’s book.
