If you haven’t been to the Common Press yet, you’re missing out! But not to worry, Alfonzo and I will transport you there. The Common Press is an intersectional bookshop and event space at the end of Brick Lane and I wish I could live there because the curation of events and books is amazing and the chai latte is fabulous and I found all of my favourite new reads there.

Questions you may want to reflect on after listening:
  1. What might make a queer space different from an intersectional space? How could they be similar?
  2. How much time do you get to spend in intersectional spaces?
  3. What do you need in a space to feel welcome?
  4. If you could open a radical bookshop tomorrow, what would you call it?
