Finding Me..../The Other Black Girl/AKO Caine Prize Shortlist 2022
Manage episode 332531596 series 2786472
Hello Everyone! I'm back and I missed you.
Thank you for tuning in to Episode 2 of Season 3 of Semiscribbled Podcast.
In this comeback episode, I talk about Finding Me by Viola Davies, a memoir that I can get with. Authentic and so well written that I would definitely place it in my top 10 of 2022 and would easily revisit it. Viola is truly an artist of many talents. The journey of her life is so interesting and lets us into her personality and the choices we have seen her make publicly, which perhaps gives us a little more understanding. I also talk about The Other Black Girl by Zakiya Dalila Harris. I struggled with TOBG and I do my best to articulate why. I need to DNF books and let y'all know about it. Finally, I speak about the 2022 AKO Caine Prize for African Writing Shortlist! I am beyond excited about this year's list.
This episode, the Something To Note Section, includes a clip of the 2021 Chair of Judges, Goretti Kyomuhendo obtained from the 2021 AKO Caine Prize Award Ceremony.
Our editing maestro is THE Tevin Sudi.
