Hey everyone, this week, the podcast is being supported by the Guardian's newsletter, The Long Wave.

Now, how many times on this podcast have I mentioned newsletters? They are my absolute favorite thing

at the moment. I am signed up to so many from entrepreneurship and finance to fashion, recipes,

and I've recently subscribed to The Long Wave, a weekly newsletter written by the Guardian

columnist, Nezrean Malik and edited by Jason Akundi, bringing the best in reporting, features

and commentary on black life and culture around the world. They cover a variety of subjects from

art, culture, politics, business, health and more, exploring a range of black

culture and conversation, both popular and niche, global and local. And they really do mean

global. The long wave often draws on reporting of news correspondence across Africa, the US,

the UK, South America and the Caribbean,

and has already covered topics such as Trump's US aid freeze,

the crisis in black women's hair care, Kenyans, Gen Z's political revolutionaries,

and so much more.

So if this sounds like exactly the newsletter for you,
