Meshia Rudd-Ridge’s journey started back in college in 2010 when she decided to study Kiswahili intensively in school. Tune in to learn about how Meshia completed an internship in Rwanda, lived in Ghana for 4.5 years, traveled to 14 African countries and started TWO social enterprises afterwards. After starting a travel company for Diasporans who wanted to explore the continent’s beauty, Meshia was inspired to start her first social venture, Cool & Collected Africa. After Covid-19 began to cause a decline in tourism rates globally, Meshia launched her new social venture Inala; a B2B commerce platform that connects brands and retailers to artisans who produce socially-responsible goods. Her goal is to redistribute more wealth in the industry to actual creators.

Hey fam! 

James Wilson speaks about why he wrote and self published his first book "Teach Me About Garvey" for our youth. At what age can you recall learning about the great Marcus Garvey? If you're like me, you probably didn't stumble upon him until early teen years.  James is a native of Nashville, Tennessee, father, and graduate of the great HBCU, Tennessee State University. He is also the founder of the non profit "Mine and Yours Community Initiative (MAYCI)." 

I have my copy and love reading it to my toddler. I enjoy being able to teach her about the Pan-African Movement from such a young age. 

Be on the lookout for his next book "Red, Black, and Green, Tell Me What it Means"
