Getting Better Acquainted

In GBA 239 we get better acquainted with Njambi McGrath. She talks about how the sudden death of her father forced her to confront a past she'd left behind and begin a journey of discovery into personal and cultural history she knew little about. We talk about making comedy out of dark topics, the effects of colonialism on the continent of Africa (particularly on Kenya where Njambi is from) and how the west views and distorts the lives of people from African countries. Njambi will be previewing her new show in a double bill with my solo show at Stand Up Tragedy Presents on Feb 18th at the Dogstar Brixton: Stand Up Tragedy Presents on 18th Feb: http://www.facebook.com/events/1129825877029165/ Listen to a sneak preview of the preview in this episode of the Spark True Stories Live Podcast: https://www.acast.com/sparklondon/multiculturalminds-truestorieslive Njambi plugs: Her Blog: http://www.njambimcgrathcomedy.co.uk/#!blog/c1o4u Her website: http://www.njambimcgrath.co.uk Her Facebook: https://www.faceboo
