A fascinating story that starts in the tiny African country of Equatorial Guinea, a former Spanish colony. It’s a journey that takes Monica Macias, the daughter of Equatorial Guinea’s first president, Francisco Macias, to North Korea as a 6-year-old.
She becomes the ward of Kim il Sung and grows up in Pyongyang.
Monica tells Africa Here & Now about her identity crisis - African on the outside, but her soul, she says is Korean. She reflects on being the daughter and the ward of two of the most reviled dictators of the 20th Century.
Monica’s book, Black Girl from Pyongyang is published by Duckworth.
