THE AFRICAN WORLD
The African World is a multi-media news organization that brings Africa to the world. We provide original reporting, analysis, perspectives and context so that our audience understands the people and forces shaping Africa for better or worse.
We produce The African World, the premier public affairs television program about Africa in the US. It regularly features African leaders, US policy decision makers, business executives, and heads of development and humanitarian organizations discussing pressing issues facing the Continent and bold and innovative approaches to solving those issues.
The African world television program airs bi-weekly on Sundays at 2:30 p.m. on MHz Networks, an independent public television station that broadcasts out of Falls Church, Virginia, USA. You can find below information about the channels on which you can watch the program on MHZ, depending on who your cable provider is.
