With Siana Bangura and Special Guests
Poet and feminist activist Siana Bangura launches her poetry residency at Housmans with readings from her award winning collection Elephant. Never afraid to address the elephant in the room – the very spirit with which this collection was put together – Bangura’s work has a special focus on black womanhood, gender and racial politics, as well as family, fatherlessness, identity, Black British girlhood, unemployment, gentrification, disenfranchisement, love, loss, and more. Special guests to be announced.
