SUMMARY:"Travelling While Black" with Nanjala Nyabola in conversation with Dickens Olewe [online event]
DESCRIPTION:ONLINE EVENT 7pm UTC \nHousmans are pleased to welcome writer and political analyst Nanjala Nyabola to discuss her latest book Travelling While Black. What does it feel like to move through a world designed to limit and exclude you? What are the joys and pains of holidays for people of colour\, when guidebooks are never written with them in mind? How are black lives today impacted by the othering legacy of colonial cultures and policies? What can travel tell us about our sense of self\, of home\, of belonging and identity? Why has the world order become hostile to human mobility\, as old as humanity itself\, when more people are on the move than ever? \nNanjala Nyabola is constantly exploring the world\, working with migrants and confronting complex realities challenging common assumptions – both hers and others’. From Nepal to Botswana\, Sicily to Haiti\, New York to Nairobi\, her sharp\, humane essays ask tough questions and offer surprising\, deeply shocking and sometimes funny answers. It is time we saw the world through her eyes. \n**Please note this is an online event.
