S1E6: Femi Otitoju

Andy Piccos from episode 4 recommending I meet up with Femi to hear her stories and it was really good advice. I headed over to Femi's offices for our chat. Unfortunately she's a very busy woman... like really busy, so we didn't have a lot of time together. But the time we did have together was definitely worth the trip. Her stories of what it was like to be a young, out, black lesbian who was part of the women's movement, working on Switchboard and partying regularly are so insightful. She was left in London by herself when her mother moved back to Nigeria and she quickly became the centre of attention on the scene.
