BOOK COVER REVEAL

Here is my grandfather and I, circa 1994, in Lagos, Nigeria at my naming ceremony! ❤️

I’m so honoured that this is the book cover for CEREMONY FOR THE NAMELESS, forthcoming from Penguin Books UK 7th November 2024

PRE ORDER here 🤍: penguin.co.uk/authors/294370…

The form is now ready for us to note any cases where Black people go missing in the UK and their bodies are found by bodies of water. The police usually say it’s ‘not suspicious’ when to many of us, it absolutely is. I’ve named it ‘Asking The Tides’

Insight, wisdom and shit tv recommendations from Yomi Ṣode 🇳🇬 Rishi Dastidar 🔱🌊 Hannah Silva & #BridgetHart
…kicking off with the Artists Panel at Uni Slam 2024

“Christian forgiveness”

The Speaker has to resign after failing to take a question from Diane Abbott.

It’s not possible to argue he takes racism seriously.

The scandal should be at the forefront of his mind - if so, he just doesn’t care about racism.

Or what he forgot? - so racism isn’t a priority.

“Should be shot”

Yomi Sode is in St Andrews people, and we all loved that 4th one where he was just screaming grime

Loved the 1st daycof StAnza Poetry festival, standout performances for me include #padraigotuama , Kathleen Jamie, Amy Acre, Yomi Ṣode 🇳🇬 & Jason Allen-Paisant thanks to all poets, signers & organisers

“Ask me why i find home in a place i could die”

The incredible Yomi Ṣode 🇳🇬 takes to the stage StAnza Poetry Opening Night! You can also catch him The London Book Fair, 11-13 March 2025 on 14th March on our Future of Poetry panel at Focus Theatre > londonbookfair.co.uk/en-gb/whats-on…
