      On the last leg of the Afropean Podcast's journey, Johny arrives in the city of romance, Paris France, home to Europe's largest Black population outside of London. He links up with neo-soul legends Hélène and Célia Foussart (Les Nubians) to talk about Black empowerment through music, follows the route of Black History walking tour to learn about the whitewashing of French heroes with Black heritage such as author of The Three Musketeers, Alexandre Dumas, and pays a visit to academic Olivette Otele, who breaks down why its a problem to refuse to acknowledge Black citizens who aren't deemed 'exceptional'.

      Johny arrives in Lisbon, deconstructing the myth of the 'good coloniser' through conversations with innovators and intellectuals of African descent in Portugal. He hears from Kalaf Epalanga of the band Buraka, who pioneered the frenetic Angolan afro-techno musical genre kuduro and then speaks to artist and activist Raquel Lima, whose research on slave rebellions in the former Sao Tome colony inform her resistance to social inequality in the present day.

      In Stockholm, where Swedish-style social democracy has positioned the country as a world leader in development aid and refugee intake, Johny hears the complicated ways African voices are marginalised. With Minna Salami, he compares her term 'Afropolitan' with his term 'Afropean', and discusses challenging European intellectual hegemony through 'sensuous knowledge'. And with musicians Stephen Simmonds and Sofia Janberg, he enjoys a more rhythmic examination of the Black Swedish experience.
