The collection includes poems which have had millions of online views and been featured across TV and radio. This year she published Tangled In Terror: Uprooting Islamophobia, a non fiction work called ‘courageous’ by rapper, Lowkey, ‘one of the most exciting voices of her generation’ by award-winning channel 4 journalist Fatima Manji, and ‘fierce’ by feminist activist Lola Olufemi.

Musical Guest: Meduulla is a 23 year old Mancunian rapper who is paving her way into the UK rap scene. Having written poetry since the age of 13, she prides herself on her whitty lyricsim and wordplay, and takes great inspiration from artists such as Lauryn Hill, Noname and Kendrick Lamer. Her experience as a Queer, Zimbabwean migrant in a male dominated field gives her music a unique perspective that epitomises unapologetically carving out spaces for yourself in places others might consider impossible.
