In this episode, Hannah is joined by Kaz Lucus, a kink positive queer Kenyan sex educator who hosts The Spread podcast. Kaz talks to Hannah all about why she decided to create the Spread Podcast and her mission of helping fellow Kenyans be more open in discovering their sexuality, as well as how religion is the root of sexual taboo and stigma in Kenya today. Kaz explains how Kenyan culture was much more open towards gender and sexuality before colonialism, and why, although Kenya is still a polygamous country, she thinks polyamory is a more modern day and ethical practice. Finally, Kaz shares some of her own personal experiences of polyamory and the work and communication it involves. **MORE ABOUT KAZ LUCAS** Award winning musician and 2021 TED fellow/speaker Karen Kaz Lucas is an established leader in the Kenyan arts and culture ecosystem. Having begun her career in 1997 as a rapper/singer, she has gone on to run creative ventures and projects cutting across the performing arts, media production, digital marketing and innovative events that shape the industrial standard. Kaz has had a lifelong passion for changing the way sex education is taught to young people. Driven by this passion and enabled by her media experience, she started The Spread Podcast. The Spread is a sex positive podcast that only exists because there is no comprehensive sex education in Kenya. Information about sex is rooted in the negative consequences: HIV and AIDS and unwanted pregnancies. But while these are some real consequences, there’s need to highlight all the positive things that can come out of healthy, informed and consensual sexual practices. The Spread provides a platform advocating for comprehensive sexuality and consent education in our academic institutions. - Website: https://www.kazentertainment.com/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kazkarenlucas/ - Twitter: https://twitter.com/karenkazlucas - The Spread: https://www.instagram.com/thespreadpod/ 📝CHECK OUT THE SHOWNOTES AND TRANSCRIPT📝 https://doingitpodcast.co.uk ✨CONNECT WITH US✨ https://www.instagram.com/doingitpodcast https://twitter.com/doingitpodcast 👀WANT EARLY & AD-FREE ACCESS TO EPISODES?👀 https://www.patreon.com/hannahwitton ✏️SIGN UP TO OUR NEWSLETTER✏️ http://bit.ly/HannahWittonsNewsletter
