EPISODE 46: DR. FRANCESCA SOBANDE, SCHOLAR AND AUTHOR
Wednesday, 12 March, 2025
For episode 46, we spoke to scholar and author Francesca Sobande, whose research focuses on the impact of digital media in shaping how we perceive, understand, and experience the world and each other. Our conversation explores Francesca’s numerous books (which address topics such as the online lives of Black women in the UK, the ways that big brands manipulate, exploit, and even derail social justice movements, and the commodification of care culture in COVID-19), and the way digital media informs *and* is informed by what we think is “real life.” Our intro (“Love is Love”) and outro (“My Ace”) are courtesy of KING VISION ULTRA, 2025.
