🏛️ Brands, agencies & decision-makers The South African creative industry is hurting — and we can’t fix it with silence. I’ve published: 
“The State of South Africa’s Creative Industry: A Call for Change” It’s a bold conversation about everything we’re scared to say out loud — from poor execution and fading excellence, to the lack of pride, inclusion, and intentional brand-building. I wrote this with love, frustration, and vision — because I believe we can restore the fire this industry once had. Let’s stop recycling mediocrity. Let’s build with integrity. 
Let’s bring the culture back. 🔗 Read & share the full article here: linkedin.com/pulse/state-sou… In this following article - I referenced a few incredible people: Mbuyiselo Vilakazi @his_teaness , Oluthando @ThisLove_K , TBo touch @iamtbotouch , Bonang Matheba @Bonang , Minnie Dlamini @MinnieDlamini , Pearl Thusi @PearlThusi Sinemivuyo Mpulu, Jabulani Macdonald @Jabu_Macdonald , AlignSA @alignsa_ , Jefferson Isesele and Relebogile @RelebogileM #CreativeVoices #ForTheIndustry #HopeNote #SAEvents #PRWithPurpose #KgotsoHopeLekau #SouthAfricaCreative #AlignSA #CallToChange #LeadershipInCulture

🎙️ The State of South Africa’s Creative Industry: A Call for Change This one was tough to write. As someone who’s spent over 12 years in the creative and media industry — both locally and internationally — I’ve seen the highs and now, more than ever, the painful lows. From overlooked excellence to gatekeeping, and a disturbing decline in execution and industry pride, I had to say something. So I did. This is not a rant. This is a call. A deep conversation To build, not just trend. To invest, not just perform. To restore the heart of the South African creative scene. 🖋️ Read the full article: linkedin.com/pulse/state-sou… Let’s talk. Let’s change.

Jacob knows that it only takes #OneDropOfKindness to brighten someone's day. After observing a stranger get out of their car & walk into a local Walmart, he noticed that the person looked unhappy. He quickly wrote a #HopeNote & placed it on the their windshield. #smsdayofgiving

Great endeavours by @hopenote @safyark monitoring & analysing #Islamophobia. It’s important that the term Islamophobia is defined so that, amongst other things, its prevalence & impact on #Britain can be better assessed. #LAMP #HateCrime #HCW2018
