Boisterous Ravens LGBT+ History month

NAZ is a Black-led sexual health agency working to address sexual health inequalities in BAME communities. We have 29 years of experience working across London to provide culturally specific interventions to Black African, Asian, South-Asian, South-East Asian, Middle Eastern, Latin American, and Caribbean-heritage communities disproportionately impacted by poor sexual, reproductive, and HIV outcomes.

Our vision is a world where there is sexual health parity for BAME and BAME LGBTQ+ communities, where our background, beliefs, and socioeconomic status do not define or limit the care we receive, and where everyone enjoys good sexual health.

Boisterous Ravens

An evening of Spoken Word. Words heard once a month. Featuring the strong Black voices of women and non-binary people. It is now more than ever we need to create spaces for those disproportionately affected by the Coronavirus pandemic and the subsequent footprint of social isolation and digital exclusion. We need to listen to those who felt that while Black lives matter Black women’s voices and other marginalized voices of color were not amplified advocated or acknowledged. We know that feeling silenced by inequitable structures can negatively impact mental well being especially for those who already feel ignored. The Spoken Word art form has always been a gateway to political emotional personal expression what better arena than live poetic performance to hear those voices rise.
