018 - Social Activism and Content w/ Sameer Ahmed aka SCANE

Sameer is an 18 year old content creator who aspires to be the voice for those who don’t have one. 

His content is about social issues and hardships in Bangladesh and he highlights how we can help or at least try to help solve these problems on an individual level. 

I first found out about Sameer through one of his videos on Instagram where he was passionately talking about the culture of after school tuition in Bangladesh - I remember about this insane culture and how it impacted me negatively as a student so it goes to show his choices of topics are quite interesting. 

While Sameer is not a seasoned creator, he amassed a sizeable audience in less than a year of starting out and that impressed me enough to bring him on the show even though he is still learning the ropes. 

In this episode we talk about what it’s like to be a young creator tackling different topics on the internet, how Sameer tackles a growing toxic audience and a fair bit about the world of creating content for social media.
