Leaving No One Behind - Locating Strongwoman

Play0:00-0:0028 min

In this first conversation, Tolu Agbelusi and Edwige Dro discuss Tolu's book of poetry: Locating Strongwoman. The book reflects on “the embodiment of the fact that strength can and most often does exist in ordinary living, away from a podium, or the fabricated perfection that is sold to us as womanhood. The poems speak to unperformed living, the joy and the searching, the falling and the failing, the silence as language, the learning and the unlearning of our conditioning, and the triumph of inhabiting everything that we are without apology as the ultimate.”
