Self-censorship and leaving ‘wokeism’ with Africa Brooke
We can’t express how excited we are to share this week’s episode with you. We sat down with the icon that is Africa Brooke as she chatted with us around the dangers of identity markers, self-censorship, the loss of free-thinking today and her viral letter about leaving the cult of wokeness.
Many juicy thoughts, ideas and concepts were shared - all of which are to give you some food for thought to make your own conclusions. As it should be.
We hope you love this episode, Close Friends.
