Her Tempest
Tongue Writing Workshop

Her Tempest Tongue is a Black feminist writing workshop at The Feminist Library on Saturday 28 November 2026, 2–5 pm. It explores the words and worlds of Black feminist writers including Gloria Naylor, Toni Morrison and Octavia Butler, with space for Black women of the diaspora to reflect on their experiences and imagine the worlds they wish to inhabit. Reading, discussion and creative prompts cover identity, memory, speculative futures, and how fiction can help make sense of the present polycrisis. Participants then create poetry and prose for a collective anthology. No writing experience or professional background is needed. The venue is a fully step-free and level space with gender-neutral and wheelchair-accessible toilets; the nearest step-free station is Queen's Road Peckham. Sign-up to attend is via Eventbrite.
