Lilly Bekele-Piper is an international education and communication strategist, speaker, and activist.
After completing her BA at Wake Forest University and a Master's in Higher Education at Harvard University, Lilly moved back to her homeland of Ethiopia in 2007. She is a leading technical consultant at multinational organizations such as the United Nations, DFID, and USAID, among others.
In today's episode, I interviewed her on what is an African culture.
We talked about the impact of colonialism on African women, women losing their origins and identities while adopting their husbands' names. She explains why she believes that men and women need equity most of the time rather than equality.
And she helps elaborate on an African woman’s superpower.
