Welcome to our latest podcast episode, where we had the pleasure of catching up with Yolanda Keabetswe Mogatusi. We delved into her enchanting book, "Rapulani," and explored her remarkable career in filmmaking and storytelling.
In "Rapulani," we follow the adventures of a spirited young girl with a magical afro. When her new stepmom utters the daunting words, "It's time to do your hair," Rapulani fears the worst – that her hair will be snipped off. She embarks on a captivating journey alongside her trusty brush dog, Brussels, but in the process, she discovers what she's leaving behind.
Yolanda shared invaluable advice for aspiring authors, urging them to write fearlessly, emphasizing the importance of feedback, and encouraging them not to play small but to start "chopping trees."
