This week’s episode is housing lawyer Hashi Mohamed speaking to Guest Curator Otegha Uwagba.
Hashi’s family arrived in the UK as refugees from Somalia in the 1990s, and his book A Home of One’s
Own is the story of his family, as well as that of every family in the UK trying to carve out their own
space in a broken housing system.
