Alcoholism, Self-Sabotage, and Wokeness with Africa Brooke

My guest today is Africa Brooke. Africa is a London-based consultant, writer, and life coach. She is the host of the "Beyond the Self" podcast.
In this episode, we talk about her background growing up in Zimbabwe and her experience as an immigrant to the UK. We talk about her journey from alcoholism to sobriety. We talk about her essay, "Why I'm leaving the cult of wokeness?" We also talk about the notion of self-sabotage. Africa is essentially a life coach for high-profile clients and at some point, this conversation basically turns into a life coaching session for me. We talk about my own habits with alcohol, as well as the ways in which I might engage in self-sabotage. Africa seems to be very good at her job, and I hope you find something of value in this conversation.

[@anonplussedhuman5149]

I listen to her all the time to calm down lol

[@paulhamrick3943]

Her comments about the psychological impact of entering a majority white society and therefore feeling a sense of her own difference/“race”, to me, confirms a point that I’ve been arguing for years: that white people are often criticized for functioning on a default assumption of their own “primacy”, which is unfair, in a sense, because that’s how people in any relatively homogenous society think.

[@janetoliver9561]

Watch a video of white people entering an African village. The children think they are monsters.

[@InsaneCarville]

I feel the mainstream focuses on a "hot topic" of minorities. Meaning that, it only takes a handful of people to make comments about a minority group before it goes viral and becomes the next big thing for certain people to "speak up" for. As a white guy from Australia, racial oppression in our history is very real and has been quite brutal and savere at times, but our history is very different from Americas (not better or worse, just different). I feel it's important to acknowledge and understand this history and take it upon myself to take opinions and action, but not to polarise groups of any kind as the individual has always been the most important thing to me. In my line of work, I come across more people from Asia than any other continent and some (individuals) have gone as far to say, their words, not mine, that "I'm from the orient, but not allowed to be oriental" which has stuck with me from the first time I heard it. Being surrounded by a few woke people, I found the homogenisation with racial groups in Western culture in general very striking. Not sure how much this relates to your thoughts or comments, but felt these insights were worth saying.

[@brittneyrichmond6724]

Growing up in a very diverse place I didn’t understand this. It makes sense for people who didn’t.

[@serpentines6356]

Exactly. I haven't been to Africa, but it would be a very different orientation to be a minority in another country. Shoot, I am in the minority now where I live because the demographics have changed, even though I have been here the longest, along with a couple others. I don't like it since it's a language, and cultural thing.

[@serpentines6356]

@@InsaneCarville I never did get the "oriental", or "orientalism" word thing as being bad. I grew up with those words and they were not bad, or derogatory words at all. "Asian" just means "oriental" to me.

Africa is wise beyound her yers. I suffer from anxiety and mood disorders. I have gone to drs for years and really have not improved.

[@1eradney]

I love the part about leaving, reaching for a drink to make yourself stay, or giving yourself the courage to communicate. This is one of the best conversations on alcohol as an 'assistant' to 'be', and also belong, I have ever heard. I have learned to enjoy all of my social encounters sober and without drinking now. "It's a constant practice" is so beautifully correct and wise! Love this revelation!

Thank you for having Africa on! She’s one of my role models despite the fact she’s young enough to be my daughter. When I was young, growing up in the 60’s/70’s everyone talked to their neighbors, fed and disciplined their neighbors’ kids 😂 and just lived almost in a communal way. When we talk about the tribal aspect of blacks in the US today it’s with negativity because of gang violence but there’s an inherent beauty in tribalism and Africa has taught me that through her story.

[@normanshadow1]

The discussion on self sensoring and what to say about someone's haircut. If I don't like it, I just say cheerfully, it really suits you. What a gorgeous woman, inside and out.

[@andrewshantz9136]

Looking forward to this! Initial thought: Yes! Wokeness is rooted in the post-modern victim/perpetrator rubric where the declared victim seeks concessions from the declared perpetrator. This can only be win/lose. Real value creation can only be win/win. Clinging and doubling down on this worldview undermines creativity and frames the victim in their own minds as perpetually inferior.

[@Platinum1812]

I have mixed race children, but not black, if that matters. I would never tell them, even if they were black, to worry about changing everyone else. I'm teaching them that what they do matters. No excuses. If you go and get an MD for instance, no matter the obstacles, you will have a better life than if you don't. And if some people are against you then falling into a self-defeating victim would just let them win anyway.

[@serpentines6356]

I highly recommend watching Ayaan Hirsi Ali's, "The Market for Victimhood". On KZbin.

[@basicforge]

@@Platinum1812 My wife and I raised a mixed family. I told my kids not to let anyone stop them from doing what they wanted, and that can they be whatever they set their ambition to be. After they went through the college mill, I became their enemy for ever telling them this. Parents are demonized in this world.

[@Platinum1812]

@@basicforge I'm sorry to hear that, it is hard (probably impossible) to discuss these issues with young people that have a dozen PHD's all telling them the same thing and then they throw a Scientific American article in your face that is also telling them the same thing. I think back to when I was in college and honestly it's hard to blame the kids themselves for thinking the problem must be us given what is arrayed against us. Hopefully yours will come around soon. There is the saying that a young conservative has no heart and an old liberal has no brain, or something like that.

[@slapcanister]

Totally relate to Africa's story - my dad also had a really serious drinking problem, and I also started to go the same way as a young teenager - so at the age of 25 I had already been an alcoholic for 10 years. That was when I started to make a loving effort to heal my wounds and traumas instead of destroying myself as a distraction from the pain. Realising that I actually liked myself and was actually perfectly happy to sit and be with myself without needing an escape was the ground-breaking realisation that really changed my trajectory. Meditation got me there. Africa's story and her positive energy are inspiring, and her honesty and courage in talking about all this is incredible. Thank you Africa and Coleman for this wonderful discussion.

BoomXer here. I had the privilege of growing up in a 99% AA community and both my parents experienced the Jim Crow South. I can relate to Africa's experience of not being hyper aware of my race.

There are so few podcasters at the calibre of Coleman who are as humble or as honest as he is (maybe Lex, but I think he's just a huge pothead). Given that, it's not surprising he's struggling with self-promotion as an artist. That's not a knock. People value you for who you are, what you do, and exactly how you are doing it. Stay the course, Coleman! For our sake!

[@troysnuffles]

I was wondering about that. I've only watched one Lex podcast (Ex Scientology). He seemed either really sleepy or stoned.

Great episode, man. Keep up the good work.

[@Papa0John]

Ok. I finished. In fact my wife wore one and I another earbud and we started over. Africa Brooke, a name to remember!! Thank you Coleman. I thoroughly enjoyed the terrain you two covered. I would characterize as ‘courageous’ the honesty from both. Coleman’s willingness to discuss his own drinking, the when and why. Africa too on a different level. Then near the end, discussing the loss of perfect composure, knowing it drops a veil of ‘reputation’. Good stuff! And I admire a person who refuses to abandon the field even when he knows he isn’t punching as hard as he could or should be when under pressure. We all wish words would come then and probably even Larry Elder gets flummoxed, though its hard to imagine. I think Coleman, your refusal to abandon the field may be ego as you say, but its a good sort that says I owe it to the ideas and positions I’m defending. I owe it to the world to show mine are more positive and the alternative’s are good for no one but the ‘presenter’ on the opposite side. Ego, or allegiance to the truth. If a little of both then still a positive stubbornness, me thinks. Thank You. Good chemistry you two!

I definitely resonate with Africa Brooke on so many levels. For one thing I spent about 2½ years living in rural Ethiopia leaving on my 11th birthday. Clearly Ethiopia & Zimbabwe are two entirely different countries; but there are certainly a number of cultural characteristics that are shared among most African nations. All of my best & closest friends were Ethiopian. I spent as much time with them as I could which was almost always "out & about" (in their domain); and it had an enormous & profound lasting effect on me and how I see myself, humanity, life and the world.

I totally feel that it takes a village to raise a child. Im a Western single Mum but have lots of friends from different cultures and whenever I was with them, my child also became theirs and responsibility was shared and I was raised up as a mother. Unfortunately these people were not around often and i was stuck raising two children in a western world where the expectation is that as a single Mum you will carry on regradless despite exhaustion. Its sad that western mothers cannot access the same love and support that most other cultures that are not Westernised. I honestly feel I would have been able to achieve so much more if I wasnt constantly exhausted all the time.

[@scottsherman5262]

I loved this, but for me, it was especially when Coleman brought up how people react when they hear that someone doesn't want to drink. I'm 47, & while I can't stand this term, I am a teetotaler. I've always, from a very young age, equated drinking with morality, & I also saw how drinking affected my parents & their friends...& society at large, so not drinking was one of the several tenets I wrote on a piece of binder paper at age 8 or 9 that I live by to this day. It was stuff like never drink or do drugs, don't lie or cheat...those sorts of fundamental bits. My wife is a drinker, & I do not expect others not to drink, but I've certainly found that others expect me to drink. Coleman nailed my experiences...lived experience - in a high pitched effeminate valley-girl/boy accent....people will either ask if I'm in recovery or they'll simply say, loudly, "WHY?!?!???" The concept of simply not drinking, & especially never drinking throughout one's life, is as alien in America as a Xenomorph. I had to Google Xenomorph as I couldn't recall the name, because I'm not a freaking dork.

[@serpentines6356]

Definitely this was on the lighter side of all the conversations that I’ve listened to with Coleman so far.

[@mikebishop2009]

Excellent interview.

[@mak7587]

8:10 My mother was an alcoholic who was violent when she drank. As a young adult, if I went to a party and someone there was being loud and aggressive I would automatically watch them intently for fear of being caught up in their violent behaviour. If it got too bad I would leave because I knew how it would play out and I didn’t want to be anywhere near him. So I get Africa’s reluctance in her wider world.
