Dear Wikimedians, The ZedWiki Podcast team, is excited to invite you to our latest episode. As we continue to explore the theme of Knowledge Without Borders, this month’s journey takes us from significant global milestones to the deeply personal stories that shaped Southern African history.
In this episode, our host Joy Chikonde explores the intersection of global heritage and local identity: Today in History: A look back at the global events of April 1st as covered by Wikipedia's main page for that day. The Legacy of Chuma and Susi: A deep dive into the powerful story of the men who ensured David Livingstone's legacy was preserved—a testament to the importance of documenting often-overlooked narratives. "My Town" Segment: We travel to Kitwe, the heart of the Copperbelt. Discover its mining foundations, its vibrant local culture, and the history of the legendary Nkana Football Club, the "Red Devils." New Segment – "Weird Finds of Wikipedia": Join us as we embrace the unexpected and explore the more curious corners of the encyclopedia. Wikimedia News, Tech & Tools: Stay updated on the latest developments in the movement and learn how to better leverage digital tools for knowledge preservation from March 2 to April 1 2026. We believe that history is not just a collection of past events; it is our identity and our story. We invite the global community to listen in, share these stories, and join us in our mission to make knowledge truly borderless. You can listen on Apple Podcast, Spotify, Amazon Music and other podcast platforms.
