Learning To Fly episodes

  • Poetry by Safia Elhillo

    On today's episode of the Learning to Fly podcast we go down a rabbit hole of poetry by Safia Elhillo - learning what it means to be a Sudanese-American, a poetess in New York city, and to be tongue-tied in not just one language - but two. I really enjoyed putting this episode together for you guys and I'm sorry in advance for the mispronunciation, but definitely google this lovely lady and check out her spoken word videos as well!


    To my knowledge she also has 3 books available to purchase - pick one, two or even all three of them up for yourselves and consider gifting them throughout the holidays as well!
