Happy to welcome back a favorite guest Korede Adedoyin to discuss one of my favorite topics; education. Korede is the Founder & Senior Operations Manager of Vemoye Foundation with the goal of “Raising Africa's Future Workforce”. Listen to our previous conversation Vemoye Foundation: Raising Africa's Future Workforce (YouTube).

We started our conversation with a bang by briefly discussing the localization of universal concepts by using local examples for children to relate. Then Korede shared how the values of her Christian background are her guide in all things, and I also shared my unconventional spiritual journey.

Then we discussed the non-existent African education systems, affirmative action and its impact on society, touched on the Marxification of education (book), and ended with an expansive exploration of the censorship of language by youths and schools, and the role of social media in creating overly TRIGGERED and intolerant people.
