This is Part 2 of our chat with Kweku Ackom-Mensah, children’s author and spoken word poet, and his cousin, Neal Gruer, photographer and writer. In this second half, we hear more about Kweku's fascination with lyricism (including an exclusive performance of one of his pieces!), and from Neal on what led him to leave his career in law to pursue a life of creative expression. We discuss authenticity in a society that equates value with likes and explore how creativity can be used as a tool to challenge our view of the world. To find out more about Kweku's work, visit https://www.unclekweks.com/ or @unclekweks on IG, and listen to the podcast he co-hosts at What Comes Next?
