2026 is the year we stop being spectators in our own heritage. Five cultural experiments. Each reclaiming what they tried to erase.
Language. Food. Film. Art. Literature.

Each month in 2026, I’m reclaiming one piece of what we almost lost.

January x Language - Learning Yoruba using socials. Whatsapp@Yaptime, @Spotify Afrobeats playlist + @YouTube shorts.
April x Food - Glow up. Inside out. I eat mostly African superfoods.
June x Film - Weekend flex. African films, mini-series and documentaries.
September x Art - I am the inspo. You are the muse. Art + creative expression.
December x Literature - reads African literature.

I Became Colonialism’s Perfect Product.
Now I’m Reclaiming Yorùbá in 30 Days.

At 38, I realised I had become colonialism’s perfect product — an African who can’t speak her own language. So for the next 30 days, I’m learning Yorùbá through WhatsApp lessons and Afrobeats.
I’ll document every cringe, every win, and what happens when a millennial finally stops being a spectator in her own heritage.
See how my Aunty was the trigger to learn Yorùbá, Thanks Aunty!
