I had such great pleasure listening to that podcast episode. Much like your newsletter, when I listened to both of you I felt seen. The Black experience in Europe is particular and needs to be told outside the Afro-American lense. I am glad I discovered Lola's work, I'll be buying her book.
Wow, what a lovely response. I love that you felt seen - this is exactly what Lolà and I intended. Please do buy both of Lolà’s books, they are true gems and speak so accurately to our experience as Black women in Europe.
