The Europeans show

Summary: <p>This week, a tale of two continents. Katy speaks to the Kenyan writer <a href="https://twitter.com/gathara">Patrick Gathara</a> about Eurafrica, an idea that informed the European project after World War II but is now largely forgotten. Sixty years after a wave of African countries won their independence in 1960, we're also talking about why decolonisation is an ongoing process. Also this week: jilted Balkan lovers, mixed meat messages, and a lost summer soundtrack.</p> <p>Read Patrick's piece about Eurafrica for Al Jazeera: <a href="https://bit.ly/2HE5s88">https://bit.ly/2HE5s88</a></p> <p>Take part in our survey and help us make the podcast better: <a href="https://iter.ly/w9d8i">https://iter.ly/w9d8i</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/europeanspodcast/photos/a.1973732409515731/2516596218562678/?type=3&amp;theater">Enter our competition for free Charlotte dos Santos tickets</a>: <a href="http://tiny.cc/n3p7jz">http://tiny.cc/n3p7jz</a> </p> <p>Thanks for listening.<br> <br> <a href="https://patreon.com/europeanspodcast">Patreon</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/EuropeansPod">Twitter</a> | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/europeanspodcast/">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/europeanspodcast/">Facebook</a> | hello@europeanspodcast.com</p>
