Some views may have felt confronting. Our intention was not to provide definitive answers, but to create space for honest exchange — reflecting the realities and tensions that exist across society.This project was about opening conversation, not closing it. About making room for reflection and growth.We remain committed to thoughtful storytelling and appreciate Africa No Filter’s partnership in supporting conversations that aim to shift narratives across the continent.About Africa No FilterAfrica No Filter is a narrative change organisation working to challenge harmful stereotypes about Africa by supporting more nuanced and empowering storytelling.About iRIPiRIP is a global-facing podcast rooted in African experiences and hosted by African women, bringing culturally grounded conversations to audiences across the continent and beyond.
