Hey everyone, I'm back with another podcast. Today I go on a rant about Performative Wokeness. A trend that I'm seeing many businesses, celebrities, and brands are participating in. I feel they are just cashing in on this movement and it has been diluted and monetized to the point it has become a trend. I also talk about how can we move past the dialogue. I want to see companies move past a post and a hashtag and start doing actionable things. Here is the YouTube video I mentioned about Symbolism: https://youtu.be/pbnA8KEq8f4 Here is the link to the Black Owned bandaid company: https://browndages.com/ As usual follow me on Twitter @LocksSis.
