'A self-help book with a cultural edge - Africa Brooke is doing something powerful' MATT HAIG
In an increasingly divided and noisy world, how do we learn to communicate, connect and endure others' viewpoints so different to our own, from strangers to colleagues and those closest to us personally, the people we care about?
- How do we cultivate a culture of honest, but valuable conversation?
- How can we learn to truly listen, remain open?
- And crucially, how do we build strength and confidence in our own voices and beliefs and find a route to brave expression in the modern age?
Enter Africa Brooke, she wants to encourage YOU, the reader, to look your own f*ckery in the eye, break free from self-censoring and start a revolution for change.
She wants to flip the conversation on cancel culture once and for all and she is not afraid.
You have your story, they have theirs - somewhere in-between lies the power of?The Third Perspective.?
In Jan 2021, Africa wrote the letter 'Why I'm Leaving the Cult of Wokeness', which has been read by 20 million + people across the globe. It sparked a viral conversation and an invitation for everyone to adopt a new outlook (her included), where we stop either silencing our own thoughts, or tearing shreds out of one another, but instead start living through the lens of kindness and compassion, where possible.
The cultural pressures we face are ever expanding, with her graceful guidance, the goal is to put you back in the driver's seat and discover a pathway for liberation.
