"This is a well produced documentary about the African Queen đź‘‘ Njinga of the kingdom of Ndongo, which is modern day Angola. Jada Pinkett Smith produced the series, and it is expertly acted. It as if we are alongside the Queen as her life unfolds. We see the King's legacy an in her, and how she becomes a warrior, fighting for her people against a Portuguese threat. I thoroughly enjoyed watching each episode."

"Though not as good as the series Netflix did for Queen Cleopatra, this series is still an amazing glimpse into some of the immensely complex history that makes up Africa. Life asked a lot of Njinga but she always met it head on."
