Susan Amala Ekpunobi (born on June 16th, 2000) is an American podcaster and influencer, and Internet personality.[1] She was formerly a host for Unapologetic, a show sponsored by PragerU.[2][3] Once a liberal activist, Ekpunobi is now regarded as conservative. She is a prominent commentator primarily on YouTube.

Early life

edit

Ekpunobi spent her early life in Nigeria with her mother, after her father left her when she was six years old.[4]

Career

edit

Ekpunobi was born in Nigeria to an African father and a cacausian mother. The couple stayed together until Amala was six, at which time her father left her mother. She was subsequently raised by her mother, who taught her a left wing perspective on life, which influenced Ekpunobi to become a liberal while in high and middle school. She eventually joined her mother’s activist organization and worked there for a year. However, during this time she began questioning the idea of systemic racism in the U.S. and now considers herself a “moderate conservative.”[5][6]

She is blacklisted from TikTok.[7]

She has gathered a large following on social media, as well as on YouTube, and has spoken at college campuses in the U.S.[8][9][10][11]

She has starred in four film projects.[12]
