DANCING WITH JINNS

A bold and compelling collection of essays in
which Black women writers confront the cultural
taboos that shape life across Africa and its
diasporas.
The collection brings together ten powerful voices
to write candidly about subjects often kept in the
shadows: menstruation, sexuality, mental health,
grief, AIDS, patriarchy and the unspoken rules
that govern women’s lives. Blending personal
experience with cultural and political insight, the
essays challenge inherited silences and question
who gets to decide what is respectable, sayable or
forbidden.
At once intimate and expansive, Dancing with
Jinns opens up urgent conversations about
identity, history and power where silence has long
prevailed.
