Who Belongs to Scotland?: In Conversation with Hannah Lavery

In this episode, acclaimed poet, playwright and educator Hannah Lavery joins us to discuss her poignant work and touch upon how Scotland can be a violent and oblivious place for black people and other people of colour. We talk about the Sheku Bayoh case, her play "Lament for Sheku Bayoh", an amazing reading of one of her poems from "The Drift" called "Scotland, You're No Mine", and general chat about growing up as racialised individuals in Scotland.  Note: some strong language in poem reading.
