Join us to discuss "Our Sister Killjoy" by Ama Ata Aidoo

A strikingly unusual and pertinent commentary on the African encounter with the West, on European soil.

Without being a conventional narrative or biography, it is a text that uses the framework of an account of a state-sponsored visit to Germany by a young Ghanaian woman to analyse what Europe is and does to those Africans whom it 'sponsors' and educates.
