This week we’re joined by Dr Zuleyka Zevallos, an applied sociologist, and the founder of the blog, The Other Sociologist. 

Dr Zuleyka chats to us about Moral panic - a concept that might be new to many of our listeners, and on today’s show, she discusses how this phenomenon is playing in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We’ll also hear a tune by Sampa the Great, and discuss the new visuals for Time’s Up, as well as share updates about her campaign to support African youth receive culturally appropriate mental health support.

This episode was inspired by  Dr Zuleyka Zevallos's article Pandemic, race and moral panic.
