Read it phonetically.\u201d When Neesom got close enough on the last attempt, the guest said, \u201cIt\u2019s Shogbamimu, but well done.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The Aftermath<\/h3>\n<p>Both Mos-Shogbamimu and Neesom posted the clip to their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sickening-video-shows-antifa-allegedly-stab-4-trump-supporters-in-washington-dc\/\" title=\"Sickening Video Shows Antifa Allegedly Stab 4 Trump Supporters in Washington DC\">social media accounts<\/a>.

She is saying I will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/activist-author-refuses-to-begin-interview-until-host-pronounces-her-name-correctly\/\" title=\"Author demands correct name pronunciation before interview.\">attend royal events<\/a>, but on my own terms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut what is more powerful is that Meghan is telling the whole world that I am rejecting any notion that because I married into the royal family I should be bait for toxicity, rage, and abuse,\u201d Mos-Shogbamimu continued. \u201cShe is saying to society as a whole: you don\u2019t get to tell me who I should be as a woman, as a mother, and as a wife.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A clip of activist author Dr. Shola Mos-Shogbamimu refusing to go on with an interview until the host could pronounce her name correctly is making the rounds on social media.\u00a0 Mos-Shogbamimu, who is a vocal supporter of Meghan Markle and penned a book about anti-racism, wouldn\u2019t back down during the exchange with British TV presenter<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":345,"featured_media":1928758,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[541],"tags":[12730,18853,4201,6234,26443],"class_list":["post-1928757","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-daily-wire","tag-author","tag-correct","tag-demands","tag-interview","tag-pronunciation"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1928757","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/345"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1928757"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1928757\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1928758"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1928757"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1928757"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1928757"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
