SEED Changemakers Film Screening - The Legend of the Vagabond Queen of Lago

Join us for a screening of The Legend of the Vagabond Queen of Lagos, a film by the Agbajowo Collective, followed by discussion from academics!

The Legend of the Vagabond Queen of Lagos emerged from the forced eviction of Otodo Gbame in 2017, a waterfront community in Lagos where 30,000 were left homeless.

Follow Jawu a young mother from a waterfront slum in Lagos as she stumbles upon a horde of corrupt blood money marked for a real estate development that threatens her home. Overcoming isolation and temptation, she must stand as a unifying force in a community that stands to lose everything.

The discussion will cover topics such as:

• Forced Displacement
• Urban Inequality
• Co-Production
• Social Movements
