Extra History Suggestion Survey is OPEN to 2/17
🕑 Added 2022-02-10 18:30:59 +0000 UTCOur theme for January & February is African History! Any topics that involve Africa or the history of the African Continent up to 1920 can be suggested.
Some notes about suggestions:
- If a suggestion we encounter only has enough research material/production scope for a one-off episode instead of a full series, we file it in a separate list to reference later when we are planning to schedule a one-off episode between series (this is true for every survey we do).
- Only one suggestion per person, please! Multiple suggestions from the same person during any given survey period will be manually removed.

So I submitted "New Kingdom Egypt"; hope it counts.
Brian Rose
What I have -- Zulu Empire, Mali Empire, Queen Nzinga, and if we're counting Egypt, Akhenaten and Cleopatra.

Definitely hoping for something pre-colonial here. While it is important to remember the atrocities committed by colonial empires, there is a lot more to history before all that, which many people don't often hear much about.

Considering EH has covered a few topics on Africa in the past, it might be worth putting together a list so we know what's already been done before.

I have research materials on dahomey I can easily forward
Benjamin Fouty
Oh! I chose Samore Toure because i thought Dahomey would be too difficult for someone in Hong Kong to research. I’ll put that in next time if you will.

I think that Rosa Parks would be a good one. There is a lot of misconception about that event, and much miss information. I know it happened after 1920 sadly.

Just worth noting that Ancient Egypt is also part of "African History".
