Trends and Tings: January 19, 2021

Travel and Turn Up Podcast

Trends and Tings is a recap of all the current news this week in the world of Black travel. We're back for the first time in 2021 and there's so much to discuss. We start by paying homage to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his life and legacy to progress in the global Black diaspora. We discuss leadership of eras in the past and compare it to our leadership in modern times. The UK is finally putting in more stringent travel restrictions, and have banned flights from South America and Portugal while also required a negative COVID test for all incoming flights. Better late than never? Finally we talk about the Ugandan elections and why we keep seeing the same issues with leadership all over the continent. Who exactly are our leaders?
