In this compelling episode of Selam & Hello, Lilly sits down with Robyn Emerson, Chair of Democrats Abroad Kenya, for a candid and insightful discussion on the 2024 U.S. election results. Together, they unpack the ripple effects of the American election on Africa and the diaspora, delving into the emotional and political aftermath of Kamala Harris' loss and what it signifies for communities both within America and abroad.

The conversation takes a hard look at what a Trump presidency could mean for U.S.-Africa relations, the diaspora's role in shaping global narratives, and how Black women continue to stand at the forefront of the fight for justice and equality. Tune in for a timely and thought-provoking episode that bridges continents, amplifies voices, and asks the hard questions about our shared future.
