Women of Inspiration™ Podcast – Boluwatife Adefemi – 2020 Women of Inspiration™ Youth Excellence Award

Boluwatife (Bolu) Adefemi is a singer and songwriter from Oshawa, Ontario. Not only is she an incredible student hoping to advance her studies …but at only 13 years old, she has made a significant national impact. She writes music that inspires others and plays guitar – but she is a poised public speaker and performer who came to the world’s attention when sharing the thoughts of her heart set to music. With the plaintive words “2020 What have you become… why are people so cruel…it’s time to make it right” her gentle call to action has touched the hearts of many. As a result of playing one small local event https://www.oronoweeklytimes.com/peaceful-gathering-in-orono-in-support-of-black-lives-matter/ she was asked to perform at two bigger ones, was interviewed by Global news https://globalnews.ca/news/7122068/oshawa-teen-writes-song-black-lives-matter/ and was asked to play her song on two major Toronto radio stations – all this before it was ever professionally recorded. Her voice truly has power, and it is a life lesson for her and young people watching her that will never be forgotten – if you raise your voice up, you will be heard. And you can change the world.
