Manka Menga

Manka Menga * (Leader Nurturer) is a Tanzanian born poet, and muse who through afrocentric opulence uses her poetry and performances to rebel for authenticity of self expression especially of African women and queer people.
Her poetry aims to not only uplift through joy a mirror to the public attempting to reflect onto them their very own selves, but also dealing sensually and spiritually with topics like GBV, the political climate,  spiritual indoctrination through a personal lens.
Her inspiration comes from lived in experiences and the lessons infused onto her from her communities. She is currently based in Ghent, Belgium.
