12 OTT 2020 · Hi, I’m Alex Holmes and welcome to Time To Talk.
Each Monday, I sit down with inspirational people to have a wholehearted conversation about what makes them tick, topics that are important and the small ways in which they are endeavouring to change the world.
We unpick mental health, delve into the iniquities of society looking at topics around mental health, positive and healthy masculinity and more - there is so much to learn from every conversation!
So, today’s episode. I am joined by Amandla Thomas-Johnson. Amandla is a journalist situated in Dakar, Senegal working on various projects. I was so jealous looking at his apartment which looks out to the Atlantic ocean. There is something about the Atlantic ocean that has a specific connection with Black people, it’s as if you can hear the wails, and history meandering over to the coast.
Amandla and I have a conversation about reparations. We spend a bit of time chatting about the Black British Caribbean experience, him hailing from both Trinidad, Tobago and the Grenadines, and myself being Jamaican it was a beautiful conversation about CARICOM’s 10-point plan for reparations.
Watch his Double Down News here: https://www.doubledown.news/watch/2020/19/june/the-case-for-reparations-as-told-by-the-descendent-of-a-slave-master-his-slaves-black-lives-matter

9 OTT 2020 · Welcome to Time To Talk with Alex Holmes where I sit down with inspiring people and have wholehearted conversations.
These episodes are brought to you by VERO True Social, the social media for the culturally curious.
I love books, and though I have spoken about books a lot on the show, I thought we could do something different. Let me introduce Books That Move Me - a new Friday segment on the podcast. In this Friday segment, I will speak to writers and readers alike about the books that have moved them in a particular direction, helped them get mental clarity, and supported their goal to live a wholehearted life.
Some of these readers are recurring guests, new guests, old friends, new friends, close friends and more - and I can’t wait for you to get some new inspiration for books!
Each week, I will speak to a guest about the books that have moved them. There will be 3-5 books each time, and I’m sure you couldn’t find a better way to enrich the end of the week.
