    Valuing Different Views with Africa Brooke

    Valuing Different Views with Africa Brooke

    Lala speaks to Africa Brooke the globally recognised consultant, mentor and speaker and who has a new book out 'The Third Persepctive'.  She went viral for her letter 'While I'm Leaving The Cult of Wokeness' where she rebuked the notion that because she is a black woman she is opressed. She encourages Lala to challenge some of her own beliefs and thoughts and feels without Africa's input on important topics such as trolling and cancel culture it would be a space less understood and debated. Their views might not always align, such as on feminism, but being able to have these types of conversations and to listen to each others experiences only makes our understanding richer and more dimensional.
