How you host environments has the potential to connect humanity and do incredible good or to cause harm. X has become a device environment with real world consequences. The extent of negative messaging from @elonmusk and his supporters pound constant negativity & shapes actions.

@lesleydw Oh my? Let me not assume this so why Lesley?

I’ve had a few good years on this platform, it’s time to bow out. You can still reach me on other social media platforms for now ✌🏼

@Jarrod_Delport 😱😳

Rassie Erasmus not named Coach of the Year. I guess building a 51-man squad with essentially 3 teams in it, 5 trophies, top rank in the world and consistent innovation wasn’t enough 🤐

@Anele My mom asked me to get one, Bel Air Spar came through 👌🏼 Not my usual go to though.

@TheKiffness I often appreciate your content but it also seems to be the place where racists come to express themselves, triggered by you @TheKiffness. Jeesh, with so many multi cultures in SA you’d think we’d show a bit more appreciation for others.

@TheBaddestMitch Oh my goodness, I feel like a pre-existing generation…. Michael Jackson was magical so seeing him on TV from South Africa it felt like he was in an alternate universe. When hearing or seeing bazaar things about MJ, allowances were made in my world. King of possibilities.

@mikesharman @ReachForADream Oh my word Isabella & Siya, bringing all the pre-match feels now 😅😭💚💛🇿🇦 #RSAvARG #Springboks

@Springboks Awesome! My the gees generated inspire a win of the championship 🧬🇿🇦

THIS: Fast fashion is an increasingly unsustainable market that continues to grow, relatively unchecked.

However, we’d like to say to Zara, Forever 21, and H&M, “your time is up!”

@alexisohanian @Reddit I love that South Africa shows up in your story. Come back to inspire our startups!

I love these clear moments where you just know you’re going to do it!

@KatyKatopodis This is where RICA should add value. Since our cellphone numbers are on the central database, we should all get alerts for severe warnings, natural disasters and political and social threat.

Tyla has made history as the first female African artist to achieve a Platinum-certified album in Brazil! 🇧🇷 @Tyllaaaaaaa

@Musa_Khawula Well if this ain’t the most ignorant post I’ve seen for the day 🫡 All I see here is love from a blended culture family 💞

[Lesley Donna Williams 🇿🇦 @lesleydw]

Thank you for sharing this @CultureNLinSA I’m glad it resonated with you.

[Jessica Glendinning @CultureNLinSA]

Love this comment by keynote speaker @lesleydw on the importance of community. "If you're not part of one, make one!"

[Lesley Donna Williams 🇿🇦 @lesleydw]

@itsKenBarbie Thanks for this, perspective is everything - but let me get my “entitled uppity African” rear to work on this Johannesburg Monday morning so I can try achieve an inkling of Tyla’s success.

@AshrafGarda @OneYoungWorld Bravo @AshrafGarda 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 for all the seeds you plant and water, this is a deserving bloom. May it be a transformative trip for you, the panelists, and the lucky audience.
