In December, US writer Roxane Gay made her first ever appearance in the UK at Southbank Centre.

Roxane was in conversation with editor-in-chief of gal-dem, Liv Little, as well as having a meet and greet with Octavia Poetry Collective.
In this podcast, Literature Programmer Bea Colley speaks to Amaal Said and Destiny Adeyemi, members of the Octavia collective, about their experiences of meeting Roxane, the label of 'women's writing' and the idea of empathy.
