Tulia translates to “Be still” in Swahili; exploring the shifts in how we have been structured to view ourselves.

The short story was written, produced and performed by an exciting and much acclaimed voice in the underground music scene, Musumba, who presents a simply beautiful story piece that shadows the theme of being “still” throughout the chaos and celebrating our joys within and around us as black people.

Tulia features two very important figures in Musumba’s life, her mother and dear friend Ethan Asante.

In this episode, creative producer Rennae Walker and featured artist, Musumba, explore the concept of black joy through a more spiritual and introspective lense. They explore the importance of looking back as a gateway to move forward and reap the fruits of healing and joy in Jesus.

The Chronicles of Black Joy podcast is supported and distributed by LU Arts (Loughborough University's art centre) in celebration of Black History Month.
