Yomi Adegoke on "The List" + British Empire Legacy W/Chagos Islands "Return" - S2 EP15 In this week's Black Political Rant, Kehinde Andrews talks about the positives and negatives of UK foreign secretary David Lammy announcing that Britain will be "returning" sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to the Mauritian government.

For example, a UK-US military base on Diego Garcia (the largest island of the Chagos Archipelago) will remain under UK-US control. He also rants about Kemi Badenoch potentially becoming Britain's first Black Prime Minister after recently reaching the top 2 for the Tory leadership race.    -This week, official guest Yomi Adegoje joins Kehinde Andrews, they talk about her award-winning debut book The List.

Slay in Your Lane Authors Yomi Adegoke and Elizabeth Uviebinené join Sarah to discuss the success of their first book as a best-selling guide to life for black British women, and their newly published book Slay in Your Lane: The Journal. Yomi and Elizabeth explain the intentions of Slay in Your Lane steering Black British women to find role models, share advice and build stronger connections with each other and in their wider working environments. They also tell Sarah how their project developed, how it hit home with some many women and how they see Slay in Your Lane developing into a movement beyond their expectations.  This episode takes us into more depth on the initial idea, explores how their language focuses on activism, and how they wanted to share the achievements and advice of prominent Black British women whilst adding their own views and recommendations for achieving a balanced and successful working and personal life. Yomi is an award-winning journalist writing for The Guardian and many other media titles, and Elizabeth is an award-winning marketing manager and is a columnist at the Financial Times.

My guests this week are Elizabeth Uviebinené and Yomi Adegoke, authors of the phenomenal Slay In Your Lane: The Black Girl Bible.

I found our conversation - which took in everything from the workplace to dating culture - both inspiring but also moving and eye-opening.

The POTUS hit the UK for his week of ridicule: the balloon; the march; the press conference and *that* video gone viral of Trump barging in front of the Queen. Meanwhile, Dolly discovers a new music hero (David Keenan) and Pandora reads her first ‘work-help' book (The Discomfort Zone by Farrah Storr.) Oh, and Love Island fans: Undercover Lover is your new favourite podcast. You're welcome. Today we are honoured to host Yomi Adegoke & Elizabeth Uviebinené, the writers of Slay In Your Lane: The Black Girl Bible. A meticulously researched and brilliantly written deep-dive into what it is to be a young black woman in the UK, the book prompted a 9-way publishing war and is stuffed full of interviews with famous black women including Olympic athlete Denise Lewis, barrister and author Afua Hirsch and former pop star Jamelia. We discuss microaggressions and microinvalidations; the ‘white co-sign'; being racially palatable; why representation and sponsorship is so important (just 0.49% of university professors are black women); why black women are swiped left more than any other ethnic group on Tinder; and how Rihanna changed the black beauty industry.
