Sisonke Podcast

In this week's episode we talk about what a scary world it is for women and girls. This episode was inspired by my sister @marleyschild who posted a YouTube video describing her experience with a super aggressive guy in Mexico, who choked her when she rejected him. Let me just say, don't try it no mo agen bruh...

In this week's episode we talk about how actions speak louder than words. This is true always, and it's not about how people feel but about what they do or what has been done. We can't erase history or the truth in order to appear polite. Let's always speak truth to power y'all or better yet, let our actions do the talkin'.
