2. Nandi Jola: Neither Here Nor There

Available for over a year

Through hidden histories, untold stories and intimate perspectives, five more essayists reveal aspects of a Northern Ireland outsiders rarely get to hear about, but which each of these writers inhabit and intuitively understand. When apartheid ended, black South African poet and storyteller Nandi Jola wanted to travel the world and experience freedom. But when she gets to County Antrim to start a new job, she doesn’t know if she’s in the UK or Ireland. In the years that follow, Nandi will discover some surprising connections between Africa and Northern Ireland. Producer: Conor Garrett
