Edna Bonhomme and Lola Olufemi: Tending to our Wounds
Tuesday 21 July 2026, 7 p.m. · 74 minutes
Haitian-American scholar Edna Bonhomme, now based in Berlin, is well placed to unpick what it means to be Black at home and abroad. In Tending to Our Wounds, part memoir, part history, part polemic, she unlearns the lies that she was told about slavery and colonialism, and charts a breathtaking course between past and future and between the individual and the collective.
She was in conversation with Lola Olufemi, author of Feminism for the World, Feminism Interrupted and Experiments in Imagining Otherwise.
