Ninette and myself discuss what self care means to us as black women. We talk about self care in spaces of political activism and as an intentional practice to ritualise for students juggling work, social and academic pressures. We discuss why writing matters,why it’s important to create and personalise your own space, as well as the importance of supporting creatives whose work is made especially for women of colour. Ninette shares with us artists and writers whose impact span years back and continue to nourish her life. We also talk hair care as a journey into self-realisation and a means to understanding black self-care and self-love deeper. enjoy 'At the Table' online at SOAS Radio and on SoundCloud.
