Poem: "What a Time to Be Alive"

Jumoké Fashola

Available for over a year

British-born Cypriot poet and essayist, Anthony Anaxagorou, joined Jumoke Fashola to dissect how his family’s history of migration shaped his new poetry collection Heritage Aesthetics. Together, they examine the complexities of colonialisation, how it shapes the diaspora and they unravel the impact of drawing inspiration from first person experience.
