Wilson is a content creator. I first came across him on the YouTube show The Grapevine, discussing hot cultural topics. I was blown away by this brother's knowledge and delivery. Then he mentioned from Cameroon! It was only right that I reached out to him to be on the series. I hope you enjoy our conversation.

In this episode we discuss:

  • What are the issues between Africans and African-Americans?
  • With so many cultures within the diaspora, is it possible for us to unite?
  • How migration is changing African society?
  • Where do the 2nd and 3rd generations fit in?
  • Should Africans or first-generation be included in reparations?

Mo Shabazz has a degree in Marketing from Howard University allowed me the opportunity to land an account manager position at Burrell Advertising in Chicago where I was able to gain priceless experience as a brand manager for Verizon, Toyota, Lexus and a variety of products under the Proctor and Gamble portfolio. That inspiration and like-mindedness led to the opportunity to work with startups like Upswing and manage brands like ATXinColor and DivInc; increasing the equity of each and thus allowing us to reach elevated heights.

In this episode we discuss:

  1. What are some of the gaps in the tech space that you have seen?
  2. How did DivInc begin and the purpose?
  3. How can non-tech people get involved in the startup space?
  4. How would you explain to our white peers the significance of the organization?
