Black Writers in their own words | Claiming His Tick Box
Description
The Amplify Project. Black writers in their own words. We’ve invited writers for the stage, page and screen to tell us about themselves, their work, what inspires them and why they write. In this episode writers Patricia Cumper and Pauline Walker are joined by Dean Atta, a British author and member of Malika’s Poetry Kitchen and a patron of LGBT+ History Month. His young-adult novel in verse, The Black Flamingo (Hachette Children’s Group / Balzer + Bray), won the 2020 Stonewall Book Award and was shortlisted for the CILIP Carnegie Medal, Jhalak Prize, Los Angeles Times Book Prize and Waterstones Children’s Book Prize.
