Mansa Muhammad Ibn Qu of the Mali Empire

THIS MALI EMPEROR NAVIGATED THE OCEAN BEFORE THE PORTUGUESE!
If you thought the best the Mali Empire could offer was Mansa Sundiata (who gave the world the very first Human Rights Charter) or Mansa Musa (unarguably the richest man on the planet till date), then you could be wrong!

To know how wrong you might have been, listen to this new podcast in which we present a really fascinating character in the person of another Mali Emperor who blazed a completely different trail:

· He navigated the ocean 100 years ahead of Ferdinand Magellan and Vasco da Gama!

· He explored the Americas 200 years before Christopher Columbus!!!
