Africa Brooke

Africa Brooke is a London-based consultant, coach, strategist, and international speaker specializing in overcoming self-sabotage and self-censorship. Her keynote presentations allow audiences to identify core values and foster boldness and resilience. 

In 2021 Africa gained attention after publishing an open letter titled “Why I’m Leaving the Cult of Wokeness”. She expressed her concern about the prevailing social justice movements, in particular the pressure to conform to specific ideologies without question. The letter gained much attention in the media, amassing over 14 million readers. Her letter ignited global discussions on the nature of wokeness and its impact on free expression. Since she has appeared in on podcasts, such as the “No Filter” podcast, where she was able to delve in deeper to the motivation behind writing the letter and the reactions it received. The letter sparked a mix of opinions, with many praising her for articulating concerns about the direction of social justice movements, and some arguing that some critics argued that her views could undermine efforts to address systemic inequalities.
