When I started this newsletter a year ago, it was with the anticipation that it would be a forum where I could publish some great stories on Modern Africa, generate some good commentary and conversation, and expand the discussions I was already having on twitter.
This isn’t the end of that story, but just the beginning. While I am no longer committing towards creating fresh new written content for this newsletter, I will still be creating content through a different form. Now with video, and now mostly on Youtube.
This newsletter will still exist as a channel to email you the videos I create, but it will now be exclusively as a video newsletter. Ok Then Politics will expand the vision established on my twitter and this substack and communicate it through fresh visuals and detailed stories.
I understand for my paid subscribers this isn’t necessarily what you signed up for, so I have decided to refund all paid subscribers. I would appreciate it for all my subscribers, paid or unpaid if you chose to subscribe to the youtube channel, which of course is free to all. It would mean a lot to me and display to me if there is necessarily a demand for this.
This first video covers Saudi Arabia’s expansion into global football and what that quite entails not only for football, but for Saudi Arabia and the planet as well.
Thank you for all the support so far, and as it continues!
