Dr. Martha Ndakalako joined the Gustavus English Department in 2021 and talks in this episode about growing up in the De Beers mining town of Oranjemund in Namibia, her early love of reading, her “complicated” (aka interesting) path to a PhD in comparative literature at the University of Oregon with a focus on Namibian women’s digital literatures, her current research on the #ShutItAllDown feminist protest movement across Namibia (part of a larger project about 21st-century feminist activism on the African continent), what makes African literature “African,” and her experience thus far teaching at Gustavus.
