Read my reflections on how it is to live in Brixton in poor housing and poverty. Follow me and my neighbours’ struggle to deal with shit that happens in our house and in our neighbourhood. Brixton is crazy and wicked but never boring – I love it!
Underground banking
The other day I met Brenda in Streatham, where she was collecting money sent from Somalia and we ended up in Somaliland a la Streatham. We walked into a small little shop and had to go into the back following a small narrow aisle full with items to sell and secret rooms. In one room women where having tea and did business. We entered a back room where some men were talking money and we had to sit and wait. Eventually one of the men served Brenda and she could collect lots of money in pound and dollars. I didn't know this existed! That is what I love about London – the cultural diversity.
