Reviews
Poetic and fierce, this volume is a compelling modern-day journey into past histories of impressive African queens and leaders., An empowering and insightful seminal work of historical significance. As a member of the Yorùbá myself, this was a powerful reminder to remember who I am and the stock of courage, power, and resilience I come from. Akpan has written a groundbreakingly brilliant book to fill a significant gap in African history and I am grateful for it!, A beautiful retelling of the stories of African women long ignored, and attempted erasure. Paula Akpan looks at our collective ancestors and gathers their stories into one book as a hen would her precious eggs, with care and reverence. She explores, questions and offers the world a glimpse into the past. Establishing the grit of African women present, gifting a future bright., This book is vital and brilliant. A searing, nourishing journey through a history the world needs., Historian Paula Akpan explores the reigns of 12 queens and warriors from across the African continent in When We Ruled . She breaks down how they came to power and how they led and represented their people before colonization changed everything., In When We Ruled , Akpan recounts the histories of a dozen African queens and warriors from around the continent--including Nana Yaa Asantewaa, who led the Asante people against British colonizers and combined both roles. Akpan merges storytelling with anecdotes about her personal research visits to nearly all the homelands of the women she writes about. Those interested in the issues swirling around African history as well as feminist and LGBTQ+ perspectives will welcome her approach, which challenges old certainties and complicates pat narratives., A rich, sumptuous and beautifully written tapestry of the past that makes my heart soar and ache all at once; this is the history we should have learned in schools. I can't imagine the person I'd be today if I'd known that this is where we came from., An extraordinary book. This tells more than a hidden history of Africa, this tells of women as they were, as we are and as we can be. Please read it!, The tapestry of stories Akpan weaves throughout this book are rich. Complicated and pulsing with the voices of historians, storytellers, archivists and memory-holders she has communed with during her time on the continent, When We Ruled has love and care poured into every single page.

Synopsis
Discover the reigns of twelve African queens and warriors from across the continent in this immersive and pioneering history. Njinga Mbande. Nana Yaa Asantewaa. Makobo Modjadji VI. Ranavalona the First. These queens and warriors ruled vast swathes of the African continent, where they led, loved, and fought for their kingdoms and people. Their impact can still be felt today, and yet, beyond the lands they called home, so few of us have ever heard their names. In When We Ruled , historian Paula Akpan takes us into the worlds of these powerful figures, following their stories and how they came to rule and influence the futures of their people. Through deep research and discovery, Akpan will uncover new truths and grapple with uncomfortable realities, allowing us to be immersed in countless moments of bravery, intrigue, and, for some, the unraveling of their rule. With reigns spanning from pre-colonial Nigeria to the rich lands of Rwanda, and from Ancient Egypt to apartheid South Africa, these rulers shed new light on gender politics in these regions, showing how women were celebrated and revered before colonizing powers took hold, and continued to be long after. In this game-changing narrative of twelve lives, Akpan takes us on a spellbinding, enrapturing, and immersive history that is nothing short of revelatory.
