The storyteller

This video was filmed by Maimouna Jallow from an organisation called “Positively African.” Maimouna gathered these stories as part of a project for them called “The Ancient Tales of East Africa.” This is the English version of “Makame and the Genie” with a translator providing the English narrative.
