Join us at the Queen's House to celebrate the launch of A Whole Heap of Mix Up by Stella Dadzie.
A feminist, activist and writer, Dadzie has been a key figure in the Black women’s movement in Britain since the 1970s. Her latest book showcases her creative, personal and political writings, covering themes including family and early life, political activism, travel in Africa and the Caribbean, and race and racism in Britain.
Featuring short stories, poems, speeches and travel writings, in addition to personal photographs and a curated selection of her artwork, this collection presents Dadzie as she has never been seen before. Raw, funny and human, both artist and activist, A Whole Heap of Mix Up offers new insights into the issues that defined a generation of Black women.
Join us for an inspiring evening with Stella Dadzie in conversation with Dr Nydia A. Swaby, Whose Heritage 3.0 Curatorial Fellow, to discuss the significance of this new work.
Signed copies of the book will be available to purchase in the shop on the night.
