In each episode of Afrikanists Assemble, people from various academic backgrounds answer a question related to the field of Afrikanistik and African Studies. We post a new episode the first weekday of every month! • This month’s question is: “Let’s pretend you’ve been asked to create a flag to represent your academic field. What colors and elements would you integrate and why? If you would like to draw your flag, you may send it to us and we will show it as a visual aid during your contribution!” • Let us know how you would answer in the comments! • CHAPTERS: • 00:00 Intro; “Maputo Bay” - Kevin Edilson • 01:32 Indian Ocean Studies: Textured ocean blue, white, orange, and green - Jacky Kosgei • 02:46 African Studies: Red, yellow, and green with a fountain - Manta G.

Afrikanistik as the study of African languages, literatures, and texts is in a privileged position to mediate heterotopic and heterogeneous knowledge practices. Through joint forums, summer schools, workshops, a fellowship program, and more, we invite young scholars to recalibrate Afrikanistik with their innovative ideas in dialogue with African Studies.
