About this podcast

One Diaspora, Two Destinies. ​ Two continents. Two generations. Zero filters. ​What happens when a Nigerian tech professional and a veteran Black American Principal trade perspectives? Routes and Roots explores the collision of the African immigrant hustle and the foundational U.S. experience. ​From the innovation hubs of health tech to the front lines of education, we dissect the gap between the routes we’ve traveled and the roots that keep us standing. Whether it’s global politics, generational wealth, or the "hot takes" that usually stay in the group chat, we’re bringing the conversation to the mic. ​ Grab a seat. It’s time to bridge the gap.
