Imagine a nanoparticle, less that a thousandth of the width of a human hair, that is so precise that it can carry a medicine to just where it's needed in the body, improving the drug's impact and reducing side effects.Ijeoma Uchegbu, Professor of Pharmaceutical Nanoscience at University College London, has spent her career with this goal in mind. She creates nanoparticles to carry medicines to regions of the body that are notoriously hard to reach, such as the back of the eye and the brain. With clinical trials in the pipeline, she hopes to treat blindness with eyedrops, transform pain relief and tackle the opioid crisis.Ijeoma took an unconventional route into science. Growing up in the UK and in Nigeria, she tells Professor Jim Al-Khalili her remarkable life story, from being fostered by a white family in rural Kent, while her Nigerian parents finished their studies, to struggling to pay the bills through her PhD as a single mum with young children.So passionate is Ijeoma to spread her love of science, she's even turned to stand-up comedy to help get her message across!

Join us on an enlightening odyssey with the remarkable Ijeoma Oluo, acclaimed writer and speaker, as we traverse the terrain of race, identity, and systemic racism. As the author of the New York Times bestseller "So You Want to Talk About Race," Ijeoma uniquely illustrates her journey from impoverishment to an influential voice in America. Listen to her candid recap of being the lone black person in numerous rooms and how these experiences, coupled with the harsh reality of systemic injustices, sparked her fervor for understanding and shedding light on race, identity, and systemic racism.We delve into the world of black women, often navigating societal structures with minimal support. We unravel the unequal burden they bear, reflect on the strength of their resilience, and emphasize the urgency of creating space for healing and self-investment. Ijeoma then guides us on a journey of understanding racism, offering invaluable insights on intersectionality and privilege — two pivotal yet frequently misunderstood subjects (Parts 1 & 2). You will become more equipped to engage these matters with clarity and better understanding.#ijeomaoluo#soyouwanttotalkaboutrace#abovethenoise24# faith#reconciliation#raceracialreconciliationStay in touch: Email us at: abovethenoise24@gmail.com Facebook: @abovethenoise24 Instagram: abovethenoise_gm Podcast art by Mario Christie.

Wellness Wahala Warriors this new episode is launching today on Nigeria

About the Book: Nonso, Remi, Aisha, and Solape meet as young, impressionable students at an all-girls boarding school, quickly forming a lifetime bond when they stand up to an older girl's attempt at hazing. Their sisterhood is soon challenged, however, when they participate in a school rebellion, the uprising causing repercussions that will forever change their lives. Traversing Nigeria, Europe, and America, spanning a century and a half, and showcasing the women and men who shaped these young girl's lives, Jollof Rice and Other Revolutions offers a window into the world of these accomplished Nigerian women, illuminating their trials and tribulations as they attempt to control their destinies.   Nonso's step-grandmother, Adaoma, faced with infertility, takes matters into her hands when she amasses a fortune, acquiring a wife to create a family of her own. Decades later, Nonso also grapples with fertility issues after she moves to the United States and falls in love with an African-American man. Remi's future husband, Segun, has an encounter with the police in the Bronx; but his strength, and the lessons he learned from his father, help him carry on. He offers support to Remi through her traumatic struggles with her father.

The message is clear.   You gotta either be going hard on your job or going hard on your side hustle to turn it into your business.   But are these truly the only two options?    Does freedom really mean hustling to create a side gig that turns into a full-time business that helps you tell your full-time job to kick rocks?    In this episode, my guest Ijeoma “Ije” Obidegwu says no!    There's a third way that defies the calls to go fast and hard and break things.    There's a third way that will be an inspiration to all of you who won't be telling your full-time job to kick it to the curb anytime soon.    But you'll learn an invaluable lesson about how to put it in its proper place.      You'll learn how to prioritize creating.    And you'll learn just how creating can give you the freedom you're looking for without you having to escape to a desert island!    About my guest: Ijeoma “Ije” Obidegwu is the owner of Pies on the Side--a fresh-baked dessert boutique/business that specializes in creating specialty pies and cakes for all occasions.

Ijeoma Ekeocha was over her job. A series of microaggressions and just blatant racism convinced Ijeoma, a talented Pharmacist and medical researcher, that she should quit. So she created a podcast hoping she could transition into doing that full time. She launched the podcast “Brownskin Stories” and things seemed to be going well. But then something happened. Podcast coach Nikaila Matthews convinced her to find even more of a niche. That’s when “Black Women Pharmacists” was created. Rather than quitting her Job, Ijeoma rediscovered her love for pharmacy and has created a community of dedicated followers, passive income and helps other black women navigate a complicated industry.

This week we are rebroadcasting our interview with Dr. Bayo Akomolafe, originally aired in January of 2020. Our hearts and minds are set to work by the urgent eco-social crises of this time. Caught in a cultural twitch of frenetic production and the sticky paradigms of modernity, we've penned vocabulary and designed technologies, manufactured frameworks and crunched numbers in an effort to diagnose and “treat” planetary collapse. We are invited by this week's guest, Dr. Bayo Akomolafe, to pause and abandon solutionism, step back from the project of progress, and dance into a different set of questions: What does the Anthropocene teach us as a destabilizing agent that resists our taming? How can we show up in our movements of justice if “the ways we respond to crisis is part of the crisis”? What happens when we unfurl into a space of slowness and relinquish human mastery to a wider cosmic net of relations?  Bayo Akomolafe (Ph.D.) considers his most sacred work to be learning how to be with his daughter and son, Alethea Aanya and Kyah Jayden—and their mother, his wife and "life-nectar,” Ijeoma. An author, speaker, renegade academic, and proud father, Bayo is Chief Curator and Director of The Emergence Network, a constellation of humans and nonhumans working together trans-locally to curate projects, rituals, conversations and events that nurture senses of the otherwise via practices that trouble the traditional boundaries of agency and possibility. Bayo is also a visiting professor at Middlebury College, Vermont, and has taught in universities around the world. He is a consultant with UNESCO, leading efforts for the Imagining Africa's Future (IAF) project. Bayo has authored two books, We Will Tell Our Own Story! and These Wilds Beyond our Fences: Letters to My Daughter on Humanity's Search for Home, and has penned forewords for many others.

Far too often, Black girls are described as “troubling” or “disobedient” yet having isolated occurrences. When you review the existing data, you notice the trends that in some U.S. public schools, Blackgirls are six times more likely to face suspension, three times more likely to be restrained, twice as likely to endure corporal punishment, and three times more likely to experience law enforcement referrals than white girls. Today we join Dr. Ijeoma Opara and Marline Francois-Madden to discuss these disparities, how Black girls are frequently treated as adults, and how we can best support Black girls inside and outside of the classroom.   Today, we join Dr. Ijeoma Opara and Marline Francois-Madden,    Keep in touch with our speakers:   Marline's Instagram:@MarlineFrancois Marline's Twitter:@MarlineFracois Visit Marline's website here and purchase the State of Black Girls here.
