Pictured - 2021 leavers, Prache & Thooba and Meranie (Upper Sixth)

The Ambassadors of the African Caribbean Society (2021 leavers, Prache Agrawal, Sabira Egan & Thooba Rayes and Meranie Kairu, Upper Sixth) recently spoke with alumna, actress and podcaster, Gloria Onitiri (DAHS 2002), about how the diversity of the student body has evolved over time and the similarities and differences in each generations’ experiences.

Gloria was so impressed by the discussion that she invited the girls to collaborate with her on one of her future podcasts of Letter to a Black Girl. She created an episode that switched her usual narrative, asking the girls to write a letter to their older selves, centred around what they might wish or hope for the future. The girls read their letters aloud before joining Gloria for a round table discussion.
