“Those times are now back, just now called Afrotech” - Jay-Z
Great podcast to learn about black tech entrepreneurs and more of our people in the tech industry. I’ve learned about a lot of apps, companies, and services created by Black people that I’ve started using today. I love Afrotech and Blavity for all they’re doing for our people. Will is a great host who is very knowledgeable, ask. Great questions, let’s the guest speak their answers, and has great media training. My favorite podcast will always listen as a black man in tech.
