Description

Africon 2025 was more than an event, it was proof that the diaspora is shaping the creative future.


In this episode, I continue my Africon recap with part two of my conversation with Anna and Odessa on the power of unity across the global Black community. Then I share highlights from my mentorship circle, where young creators explored how podcasting can amplify their stories.


I also sit down with Nigeria’s Minister of Art, Culture, Tourism & the Creative Economy, Hannatu Musa Musawa, to talk about the country’s growing “Orange Economy,” and close the night with Anna and Sofi the Oddity on the Icon Gala red carpet.




Featured Quote:

“We’re all African. That’s the message I’m here to share until everyone understands it.” — Odessa
