Untold: Nova Reid and Afua Hirsch

Untold

Featuring Nova Reid and Afua Hirsch

Presented by FANE Productions

Uncovering the untold stories of extraordinary Black women who shaped world history, British culture, and society.

Acclaimed author, speaker, and truth seeker Nova Reid will be joined by journalist, author, documentary maker, and former barrister Afua Hirsch for a powerful conversation exploring identity, belonging, and the untold stories that shape who we are.

Rooted in themes from Hidden Histories with Nova Reid, an Audible Original Podcast which is executive produced by Nova Reid, the evening will shine a light on extraordinary Black women whose legacies have been overlooked, distorted or erased-from revolutionary leaders, rule-breakers and pioneering educators to cultural icons from the
Caribbean who helped shape British and world history.

Born in Britain to Jamaican heritage, Nova’s exploration of empire, lineage and healing is both personal and political. In conversation with Afua - a leading voice on race, culture and the legacy of colonialism - they will delve into the silences of the past and what it means to reclaim them.

Because, as Nova says, “if we don’t record our histories–who will?”

With moments of reflection, celebration, and surprise live performances, do not miss a thought-provoking, profoundly human conversation about the stories still waiting to be told.
