@QMUL researching Black women's experiences of anxiety & depression during COVID via Poetic Inquiry. Interested in decolonial research, Black art/literature and all things food😁
Today I'm poeting at the inaugural lecture of the UK's 75th Black woman Professor, Azumah Dennis

I'll be joined by a host of inspirational women to celebrate this remarkable individual.

I look forward to joining their ranks one day. And what a day it will be.

Giving thanks to my Ancestors always 🤲🏾
