In this episode, We Go Way Back brings to life the amazing story of Cetshwayo KaMpande. To do so, Tom speaks with Dr. T.J. Tallie, an assistant professor of African History at the University of San Diego in California. Cetshwayo became King of the independent African state of Zululand in 1873 and the episode follows his gripping story covering an incredible victory over colonial British forces, painful losses, imprisonment, and a high-profile trip to London in 1882.
