About this listen

In this episode of The Athenaeum Book Club, host Jeremy Ryan Slate is joined by Will Tanner for a historical examination of Rhodesia and the events that led to the mass emigration of its white population.


The conversation explores the political, economic, and social forces surrounding decolonization, the Rhodesian Bush War, and the transition to Zimbabwe.


Tanner provides context often missing from mainstream narratives, examining how ideology, power shifts, and violence reshaped the country’s future.


This episode is a sober, historically grounded discussion of a controversial chapter in modern history and its lasting consequences.
