They Called Me Queer by Kim Windvogel & Kelly-Eve Koopman
Hey Bafwethu! The world is fast changing, a need to ameliorate the content is just inevitable. Coco V (covid19) has shifted things, and most people are becoming more woke as we tap into the new normal. La ekhaya, we have also decided to add book recommendations onto our list. Books are a great escape when you want to tap into a different world to give the mind some sort of adventure.

After all it's still Pride Month! They Called Me Queer' is a collection written by Africans who self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex and asexual.
