Dr. Ayodele Nzinga on Black Arts
We speak with Dr. Ayodele Nzinga, Oakland’s Poet Laureate, cultural architect, and an advocate for the arts as a tool for social transformation. Known as the “wordslanger,” Dr. Nzinga has spent decades building spaces where Black creativity thrives and where the stories, struggles, and triumphs of the community are given voice.
In this conversation, Dr. Nzinga will share her journey, her vision for Oakland’s cultural future, and her role in shaping BAMBDfest, the Black Arts Movement Business District Festival.
About BAMBDfest

Featuring live performances, visual arts, theater, music, film, panel discussions, and more, BAMBDfest uplifts local and global Black voices while spotlighting the cultural richness of Oakland. It’s more than a festival—it’s a living expression of the Black Arts Movement’s legacy and an invitation to imagine the future together. For more info, visit https://www.bambdfest.com/
