Inspired by James Baldwin’s Esquire essay ‘Dark Days’ in which the writer, in a Hughesian manner, ponders ‘What happens (…) when a reality finds itself on a collision course with a fantasy?’ I Need To Talk To God sets out to explore race, migration, culture shock and interiority.
It touches on the internal turmoil many young men of colour who migrate to the west face and the emotional hangover from this experience that occasionally rears its head in the form of rage.
