Castle Milk Stout is excited to announce that Black Conversations Season 2, the series returned to Mzansi Magic on Thursday, 13 April 2023 at 21:30.

“As a purpose – and people – driven brand, we go beyond simply selling products and have stepped up to the challenge of leveraging the power of our brand to use it as a platform where Africans can educate themselves about their origins and encourage them to become promoters of their culture. We want to inspire Africans to be bold and openly discussed censored subjects on ‘African-ness’ and ‘blackness,’”
says Khensani Mkhombo, Brand Manager for Castle Milk Stout.
“While we acknowledge the evolution and progression of culture to adjust to modern society, we wanted to inspire Africans to rediscover and reinvent their African traditions and culture in a modern world. Black Conversations is a platform that addresses unthinkable and uncomfortable conversations in our society, and we hope they can make an important role in re-inventing and progressing modern culture,”
says Mkhombo.
