Show Me Love: Begging Culture, Economies of Embarrassment & The Oblee Economy (Video Essay💋) Nigerian class politics do not transcend beyond feeling embarrassed. The public discomfort following Speed’s tour revealed that the anxiety was not simply about begging culture, but about poverty itself and its visibility. I frame embarrassment and shame as political emotions, which I term “Economies of Embarrastment’.

A dynamic I conceptualise as “Oblee `Economy’. Retweet, Quote, Bookmark & Share
