À propos de cet audio
It’s been a while since the last episode, and a lot has happened. This summer, I opened Galerie36, a contemporary art gallery and creative space in Dakar, Senegal. But today’s episode isn’t about that—it’s about a rediscovery.
While searching for the syllabus to one of my favorite graduate school classes—Communications Theory with Dr. Rhonda Zaharna at American University—I came across an old email to myself with the subject line grad speech. I had completely forgotten writing it. The speech was drafted more than ten years ago, during one of the hardest periods of my life, and yet reading it now, I was struck by how relevant the words still feel today.
In this episode, I share that speech—written originally for my fellow graduates but, in truth, meant for all of us. Because we are all communicators now. We all hold platforms, we all have audiences, and what we choose to say matters.
You can read the full speech here and learn more about E36 here.
