The five most influential women to follow on social media platforms
I am feeling
anxious and excited to write my first blog as a public relations student and
cannot wait to receive feedback from you. As it is women’s month the blog will
pay tribute and discuss five influential women who are visible on the social
media platforms. Today’s bog will mainly be about women who do not only stand
out in the social media platforms but are influential to their followers.
As a women
myself I take pride in embracing these five influential women who have not only
being credited for their fame but for the fact that they have given back to the
communities they come from, be it inspiring someone or helping at an orphanage
home and giving orphans hope. These women are talented in different
disciplines, others in the art platforms such as radio, television and films,
and others are talented or popular for their entrepreneurial skills.

DeleteYou got your influencers spot on Lebo, well according to what I think especially with Bonang, Khanyi D & Basetsana. Those are women who basically 'opened doors' for every other woman in SA.

DeleteAfter reading your blog, I wish I was born a woman too. It was very thoughtful of you to write about this and include the aforementioned women. I mean, the perception does not only inspire but it educates women and the young generation to come out of their comfort zones, make a living for themselves and not solely rely on other people(men to be precise) for their livelihood.
ReplyDeleteWe need to transmit the idea that education is not just to make you more well-informed and give you a memory bank of information and skills that lead to a career/money; but that, through the use of education you become a more brainy person, a deeper philosopher, better able to express yourself, better able to understand all sensations. We need to see education as being able to grow the mind rather than fill it with data, quotations and formulae. We should seek to become authors, not books. Lebogang, thank you for putting this up on your blog!
I agree with you on that one education is about growing the mind not just fill it with information and these women have proven that to us by there achievements. happy that you like my blog, its only a pleasure.
DeleteIm really impressed with your choice, they indeed influence us as individuals of south africa and they basically make a difference in the society in all expert.
ReplyDeleteglad you like my selection the women real represent us women and they motivate us to do better in our professions. Happy women's month to you.
