In today’s Episode CYHU continues to explore its theme: Activism, by looking at the role of the media - both traditional and social - in the construction, perpetuation, and deconstruction of biases. We are so excited to be joined by Adaora Oramah, fellow LSE alumna and CEO of AMAKA Studio, a pan African digital media platform. We chat about how to define pan Africanism and what it symbolises as well as the need to shift from using “diversification” to using “amplification” of traditionally underrepresented voices in the media. As always, join us as we fangirl over our guest, go off script and ask random questions chosen by a wheel!
