BORN::FREE is a literary arts organisation founded in 2014 for established, young & emerging writers of all narratives, with a special interest in African/Afro-diasporic & experimental writing. A focus on careful curation, craft, and critique, BORN::FREE’s work spans live and digital events, education work, broadcast radio and print.
BORN::FREE has run regular events at the intersection of live music and performance poetry, and has provided workshop facilitation services and consultancy to arts institutions, schools and youth programmes. Highlights over the last five years include: a partnership with the British Council to facilitate a writer exchange with South African poets in cities both in the UK and South Africa; presenting one-off events with renounced arts institutions like the Roundhouse, ICA, Southbank Centre and the V&A; curating Veranda, London's leading poetry jam centring Black writers, run quarterly at EartH Kitchen; being commissioned to produce events and workshops at festivals including Deptford Literary Festival, SKFEST and Brainchild.
BORN::FREE was co-founded by writer, educator and sound artist Belinda Zhawi (a.k.a MA.MOYO) and writer and filmmaker Chima Nsoedo. BORN::FREE is now run by Belinda alongside writer and theatre-maker malakaï sargeant who work together as Co-Creative Directors.
