This week on KASHA Talks, join me in a conversation with Ehizoje Azeke. A movement artist and model turned to fitness to channel his physical and mental frustration during the nation-wide lockdown and later turned to political activism to voice his rage towards the injustices that had been crippling the BIPOC community for decades. We chatted about his childhood spent in the suburbs of Illinois, the challenges and complexities of being a black model, and what it meant to be an artist in the year 2020.
