Product Description -
BEFORE THEM, WE is an anthology that explores the lives of migrant grandparents and elders from Africa, unpacking the intimate details of their lives before the families they went on to establish: who they loved, where and why they migrated, why they had families. A collaborative act of sharing by poets of African descent, bringing their personal stories into conversation with each other, BEFORE THEM, WE is a multi-layered meditation on how we engage with the practice of memory. Featuring a mix of commissioned writers, and poets who responded to a call-out, ranging from Gen Z to mature voices, BEFORE THEM, WE's 24 contributors include: multi-disciplinary artist, poet and playwright Dzifa Benson Nigerian-born, award-winning poet, playwright and performer Inua Ellams Zimbabwean literary and sound artist Belinda Zhawi queer non-binary Nigerian/Togolese writer and performer Michelle Tiwo Ghanaian-British producer and writer Nii Ayikwei Parkes, who has won acclaim as a children's author, poet, broadcaster and novelist Hodan Yusuf, a writer, actress, multimedia journalist and trainer in conflict resolution Somali digital cultural archivist and independent researcher Ibrahim Hirsi and Ola Elhassan, a Sudanese poet and electrical engineer.
