Our name, TALAWA, stems from the Jamaican patois phrase, “wi likkle but wi tallawah!” meaning, “we may be small but we are powerful”. Drawing from Caribbean radical tradition, TALAWA focuses on our collective power to forge new and bright futures. Join us on our journey! 💫

look at the joy of being with @TuwezesheDada sisters in activism from across @FORWARDUK, @Wales_SSAP, @cdftz, @amwaafrika 🥳💜
The development of radical praxis often hinges on the co-creation possible only with community. Spaces for engagement with the practical realities of Black feminist ideology are invaluable.
