Huda the Goddess is the 2021 Australian Poetry Slam Champion and two-time Queensland champion. Huda is a spoken word poet, educator, mental health advocate, dancer and workshop facilitator. She describes poetry as one of her senses that allows her to turn her experiences into art. This is her first poetry collection. As a proud African-Muslim woman it is important to her that young women from her community are represented and their stories are shared. Poetry is Huda’s connection to communities, land and her people. Having the chance to make people feel something will always be her goal as an artist.
