The Real Reason You Think Africa Is Poor

Description

This episode breaks down the uncomfortable truth behind why so many of us grew up believing Africa was poor, struggling, or in need of saving. These ideas didn’t come from nowhere; they were taught to us through school, media, nonprofits, and the Western lens that shaped our identity long before we understood it. I share how these narratives shaped my own guilt, my desire to “fix” a continent I barely knew, and the moment I realized the story I learned was incomplete. If you want to understand where these beliefs come from, how they impact the diaspora, and what it actually means to reconnect with Africa in an honest and grounded way, this is the episode you need to hear. 🎧 Listen to Full Audio Episodes: Spotify: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/prof...
