“Story was just the foundation of my life.”
In this episode, Thembi sits down with celebrated author and educator Olugbemisola Rhuday-Perkovich to discuss her approach to creating compelling children's literature. A self-described "Jamaican Nigerian New Yorker," Olugbemisola’s layered cultural identity informs her writing, which often explores themes of family, migration, and the rich storytelling traditions of the African diaspora.
Olugbemisola describes her creative process, how she taps into the deep emotional landscape of adolescence, and how storytelling can be a vehicle for empowerment and empathy.
