I had a great time at Nottingham Trent University yesterday, talking about storytelling, controversies in voyeuristic film, freedom in creativity, recovery, resilience. The students were enthusiasticβ€”we made some incredible stories together. Very special. Thank you all. @angelarobson.bsky.social

Having grew up in one of Zimbabwe’s oldest ghettos, one thing set me apart from others. I had a dream.

Today I had an opportunity to share my story with my class - β€˜Telling Real Stories Around the World.’ Thanks to @angelarobson.bsky.social for the opportunity.

I learn, unlearn and relearn
