Categories:

Back by popular demand, we’ve invited Seyi Akiwowo on the podcast for the second time to continue the conversation on social media, activism, and self care. In the context of COVID-19, there has been an increase in online abuse, racism, and hateful content. Black women have 84% more chances to be harassed on Twitter. Are tech companies doing enough to protect them? Seyi is talking about the role of tech platforms in the current situation, how we can personally protect ourselves and how to hold everyone accountable. We’ve also talked about the importance of self-care for activism and how to set boundaries to protect our mental health during the lockdown.
