In this comeback episode, I launch Season 2 of the podcast with a reaction to videos and social media posts I’ve come across recently of women talking about the struggles of maintaining the home and chores during Ramadan. I share two examples by a YouTuber named Rima and motivational speaker, Mrs. Maryam Lemu.

Ndakhte Lo, Mia Guisse, Dieyla - what's the common thread?! Ooohh I was mad today. Seeing these stories of Senegalese artists really annoyed me because it highlights such a problem in our community where we underestimate the importance of marriage!!! SO many women go through this type of pressure and scrutiny in the background, and we never hear their stories. I implore everyone watching to think deeply about these topics and reflect on how we can be better going forward. We rush to be married sometimes so much that the divorce comes just as fast. We have to do better, and our society needs to stand up for these injustices. IDK what these ladies might have done wrong in their respective marriages (nobody is as white as snow) but nobody deserves to be mistreated in this manner. SMH.

In this episode, I discuss the show Bete Bete by EvenProd in Senegal with Bamba Rassoul, an commentator of shows, movies, and culture. We talk about the impact of the caste system in Senegal, how it shows up in the show, and how society at large can take many lessons away from this very shocking but important series.

You can follow Bamba on Instagram @bambarassoul_cinema for more!

In light of Senegal's new and youngest African president, Bassirou Diomaye Diakhar Faye, I wanted to make this quick video to congratulate him and his team and also speak about my experience as someone living in the Diaspora. I ran into an Aba N Preach video where they were discussing the Gang Takeover in Haiti (see full video link below) and something Preach said really resonated with me. Tune in and let me know your thoughts down below!

For Africans living in the Diaspora, when it comes to family members, close or extended, there's a predicament between financially helping them and putting yourself first. Often times, you have to choose between a combination of external peace and internal turmoil or internal consciousness and external blame. It's not as straightforward as one might think.
