EPISODE 27 | Stop, Pause Pivot; Burna Boy & Teaching the Truth about African History in Schools The Texture Lounge by Tumi Brooks

Ever thought about taking a career break? Well, Serena Williams and I have!

In this solosode, I share some big personal news and talk about what it means to stop, pause and pivot, when society only champions the climb & grind.

In a recent interview that Burna Boy gave (cannot find the name of media platform that took the interview but I found the clip on Moyo Africa IG page), he speaks of his frustration regarding schools not teaching students the truth about African history, pre-colonization, pre-slavery. A topic you know that I am into. I share my experience of this growing up in the UK.

Thank you for tuning in. Eavesdropping allowed, always.
