I never formally studied the humanities and now I know I was saved from wat ...

So, Rosebell, the first breath is the lens for today's conversation here. What does it mean to you and why is it important to you in your work as an African feminist activist. I think the first breath is very important to me as a feminist, as a journalist, as someone who runs a platform where African feminists, you know, share their struggles, their joys and the in the kind of interventions they are doing in their communities.So I come here in that in that lens. I think that we have to think about the first ...

And even before she gets a chance to open her own bag, ...
