About Palapala

Palapala refers to a brand of Cameroonian traditional wrestling. However, Palapala magazine is an online pan-African journal on culture, the politics of art and the media. Palapala is part of the on-going cultural, literary and political discourse taking place within Africa and its Diaspora. Palapala intends to become a canvass, grassroots-friendly of course, on which the fresh portraits of our experiences can be drawn. Palapala will evolve as circumstances permit but for the meantime, we shall publish six on-line issues a year that cover a variety of subjects.
