Jackie Kay: May Day Launch
Tuesday, 23rd April , 6:00pm to 7:00pm
We’re excited to celebrate the launch of May Day, the long-awaited new collection from the former Makar of Scotland, Jackie Kay.
Jackie will be reading and discussing her poems that cast an eye over several decades of political activism. This spans from the international solidarity of the Glasgow of her childhood, accompanying her parents’ Socialist campaigns, through the feminist, LGBT+ and anti-racist movements of the 80s and 90s, up to the recent global pandemic intersecting with the urgency of Black Lives Matter.
