Come meet Homegoings podcast host Myra Flynn as she engages in a compelling conversation with poet Saidu Tejan-Thomas Jr. about coming from a destabilized home and how it affected his life and community. Saidu was the voice and co-creator of the podcast “Resistance,” which shared stories about people who “refuse to accept things as they are." Their conversation will be followed by a poetry performance and a reception with Myra and Saidu.

The event will be recorded for an upcoming episode of Homegoings.
