Description

This week’s episode is housing lawyer Hashi Mohamed speaking to Guest Curator Otegha Uwagba.
Hashi’s family arrived in the UK as refugees from Somalia in the 1990s, and his book A Home of One’s
Own is the story of his family, as well as that of every family in the UK trying to carve out their own
space in a broken housing system.
