On Whose Terms? Interview with Joan Anim-Addo
It’s billed as one of the most important events for Black British literature and the arts and will bring together writers and artists from Britain and internationally. ‘On Whose Terms?’, a major conference hosted by Goldsmiths, University of London will provide a meeting ground for various groups and individuals interested in black writing.
With a range of speakers and artists including authors Malorie Blackman and Andrea Levy and playwright and actor Kwame Kwei-Armah, this promises to be an extremely thought-provoking event.
Joan Anim-Addo, a poet, publisher, lecturer and champion of Black Women’s writing will be chairing a panel at the conference. Grenadian born, she is currently head of the Caribbean Centre at Goldsmiths, University of London. I spoke to her about her poetry, her literary activism, and why she is pleased to be invited to participate in conference.
Your first collection of poetry was titled Haunted by History, but I know you have published drama, fiction and history too. As a writer how do you think of your self?
I think of myself as a poet. If I had more choice I would be writing much more poetry. My latest book of poetry is a collection called Janie Cricketing Lady. I have been writing for a long time – more years than I care to remember! I recall that I started to take myself much more seriously as a writer after I had my family. I found there were so many questions to be answered in life. I have memories of me scribbling notes on the backs of envelopes and then checking myself, I knew I should be taking it all much more seriously. Then I remember giving myself permission and time to write and attend creative writing classes.
What inspired your latest poetry collection Janie Cricketing Lady?
It’s from an idea based on my mother who was a keen cricketer as a young woman. Can you imagine that – being a black woman cricketer in the late 1930s and early 1940s? That would have to be someone prepared to think very differently. That independence of spirit, the stance of seeing what was possible is something that has always inspired me.
As a long standing publisher and champion in particular of Black women’s writing, have you noticed much change?
If you look at it in terms of the demand to get published then I don’t think there has been a lot of progression for Black women, a lot of women write and want to be published because they want to claim a public voice. There are so many who want access to publishers and that has always been the case. But often publishers come up with the usual explanations about ‘standards’ and how they can’t publish everything.
You have played a leading role in giving black writers a voice through Mango Publishing, how did your involvement begin?
I became a key part of Mango Publishing as a cultural literary activist with Caribbean women. I remember I founded the Caribbean Writers Alliance and we would spend a lot of time sitting round my kitchen table discussing and sharing. Because there were people who were finding it difficult to gain access to publication, we started what is now the journal Mango Season. When we started publishing we very much had in mind publishing new writers. We wanted to at least give them a foot on the ladder. But surprisingly many Black writers from abroad applied to be published by us. We published the first collection by Cuban writer Nancy Morejon, a writer of international stature. We also published a collection by Afro-Brazilian women. It showed that there isn’t as much access to publishing in the world as people think.
The conference ‘On Whose Terms’ promises to be a stimulating event for lovers of black literature. How are you involved?
I will be chairing a panel which will be asking about the teaching of Black British writing. What really intrigues me is that many of the people on the panel are noticeably people teaching the subject outside of the UK. I find that very interesting, but the bigger question is where are the Universities and teachers of Black British writing here?
You are a teacher, a writer a publisher and much more, do you ever feel burnt out?
There are some times when I wish I could just stop and go somewhere very quiet and simply write poetry. I have taught all my life and while I think I have dealt with the best and worst of students I love it when I get excellent post-graduate students to think alongside. I am a part of the Caribbean Research Forum and feel very appreciative of that. Ultimately I am paid to think and feel appreciative that I have that kind of job. It tickles me sometimes when I think of it like that. I am paid to think.
On Whose Terms? Critical negotiations in Black British Literature and the Arts takes place on 13-14 March
