Embrace Kiswahili, the lingua franca of East and Central Africa. As an official language of the African Union and the sole African language in the UN’s Directorate of Global Communications, Kiswahili not only opens doors for scholars in fields such as linguistics, anthropology, geography, archaeology, and sociology but also fosters cultural exchange, diplomatic engagement, and global understanding. Join over 200 million speakers worldwide in learning this language, enriched by Arabic influence and shaped by its history as a trade language and a vehicle for anti-colonial liberation.
Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature
Ph.D. Comparative Literature, Indiana University, Bloomington, U.S.A
