Street Debate: Alcohol - when is it too much?

Alcohol - it's a social lubricant, a way wind to wind down and often initiation into adulthood. In Central Kenya, cheap liquor, illicit brews and heavy drinking have over the years led to increased conflicts within famillies, as well as calls by both government and society to address the issue. In our Street Debate, we wanted to find out Kenyan youths view the issue, hear the personal stories surorunding alcohol abuse and find out when drinking actually becomes a problem.

Much much grace to Anne Mathu, those losses are too painful. Hallo to Maria 👋

[@DWThe77Percent]

And we appreciate the work she is doing advocating for more help and support towards those struggling with alcoholism. It helps to see one who has won the battle against alcoholism and leading the fight against it so that more people are not victims. It is doable!
