Nanjala Nyabola is a relentless explorer of the world, collaborating with migrants and challenging prevailing assumptions. Her incisive and compassionate essays delve into tough questions, offering surprising, deeply shocking, and occasionally humorous insights. It is high time we viewed the world through her eyes.
From Nepal to Botswana, Sicily to Haiti, New York to Nairobi, Nyabola's essays explore diverse landscapes and shed light on complex realities. They raise thought-provoking questions and provide thought-provoking answers, challenging both her own perspectives and those of others.
Nyabola's work highlights the experiences of people of color in a world often designed to limit and exclude them. She explores the joys and pains of holidays for individuals who are often overlooked in guidebooks and highlights the impact of colonial cultures and policies on black lives today. Through her travels, Nyabola seeks to understand the complexities of our sense of self, home, belonging, and identity.
She also examines why the world order, which has existed since humanity's dawn, has become increasingly hostile to human mobility. Despite the fact that more people are on the move than ever before, barriers to travel, immigration policies, and xenophobia persist. Nyabola's essays call for a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by migrants and advocate for a more inclusive and compassionate world.
Through her writing, Nyabola invites us to see the world through her eyes, challenging us to broaden our horizons and embrace the diversity of human experiences. Her work is a testament to the power of storytelling and the importance of empathy in understanding the world around us.
