Carr-Ryan Conversations: Nihilism and Negritude in Africa

What does it mean to live and lead in Africa today? Join Carr-Ryan Center Director Mathias Risse in conversation with HKS Professor Celestin Monga for a candid exploration of economic and political challenges across the continent. Referencing Monga’s book, Nihilism and Negritude: Ways of Living in Africa, the conversation will cover his personal and professional journey, ongoing work in African and global development, and offer time for your questions. Join us for a lively discussion on the intersections of global development, public policy, and human rights.
