In today’s episode of The Think BIG for Africa Podcast, my guest is a young African journalist and filmmaker; Idris Ibrahim Muktar. Idris recently suffered the consequences of being human; he made a mistake as a young person and he lost his dream job working with the global news channel CNN for an 8-year-old tweet.In our conversation, we discussed his stupid mistake, and the impact of cancel culture on learning, critical thinking, and basic development on a continent full of young people. Ultimately, we agreed that Africa cannot afford Cancel Culture, as it is Anti-Progress. And for the good of society, people need to get over their emotional zealousness to cancel people whom they disagree with.Listen, share, and kindly subscribe to the Think BIG for Africa Podcast on your favorite podcast platform (Apple Podcast, Spotify, Google Podcast, Amazon Music, etc).Enjoy!
