In this episode, we sit down with actor, writer and producer Eman, whose work and lived experience confronts the intersections of queerness, faith and Black masculinity.
From award-nominated stage work (For Black Boys…) to creating his upcoming play Limp Wrist & The Iron Fist, Eman shares the real story behind his art: including assault, silence, conversion therapy, estrangement and rebuilding family relationships.
The conversation moves from survival to self-definition: growing up between Ghana and the UK, being plus size and black in a dating landscape shaped by Grindr profiles displaying “no fats, no Blacks, no fems,” navigating Christianity as a gay man, ghosting, attachment styles, and learning to love yourself without shrinking to fit other people’s expectations.
