If you have African roots, you know African parents would rather clear a whole forest than have a heart-to-heart discussion on all things sex and sexuality. Yap! It took some of us 19+ years to learn what consent, family planning, and sexual anxiety really meant.

Luckily, sex-positive platforms such as ‘The Spread,’ a Kenyan-based podcast led by Karen Kaz Lucas, a renowned TED Speaker, have come up to help decolonize the way Africans and the world at large talks about sex and sexuality.

The series covers everything from LGBTQIA+ issues, Kink, Porn vs. Reality, Sex Positive Parenting, and Reproductive Rights, among others.

Sounds like something you’d want to listen to?

Start Here: Religion and the Bedroom

Brown Ambition
