ZANU and ZAPU-contrasts and similarities

Although colonialism in Africa is believed to be in the past, its
legacy lives on in the present through the tension and conflicts
evident between those tribes of native Africans that were thrust
together under British rule. The rise of Nationalism after World
War 2 and the path towards gaining independence was a difficult
process for native Africans. However, this created more
challenges due to the divisions that existed due to language,
customs and culture as well as social and economic backgrounds.


In this podcast episode, Tracy DW explores the country of
Zimbabwe (formerly known as the British colony of ‘Rhodesia’) as
an example of how these divisions played out during the 1960s and
70s. The political parties of ZANU and ZAPU may have practiced
separate approaches to undermine the Rhodesian government but
they eventually came together to achieve a common goal.


This podcast compliments our poetic narrative ‘Hope for
Zimbabwe-arise the Phoenix.’
