It's time for African Women to become Brazen in the way they tell their stories to the world. This is beautiful conversation about storytelling. We talk about:
- Our own stories
- How to tell stories
- Why we tell stories
Laura Ekumbo, Aleya Kassam, and Anne Moraa are The LAM Sisterhood: a story company, telling stories for African women to feel seen, heard and beloved. Dr. Joyce Nyairo has stated, “We need our life writing to fill in the gaps of every facet of our history—– political, economic, social, cultural and intellectual,”. We work in the realm of life writing, where we use rigorous research, our imagination and feminist storytelling skills to create compelling narratives in a variety of mediums, from children’s storytelling to musical theatre, podcasting to film and more.
Quotes:
“Stories keep memories alive”
“If you think its interesting, I promise you someone else find it interesting”
“Don’t be afraid to believe in your own story and your own truth”
