Thanks to the excellent Jo Callaghan for this wonderful write-up of Alexandra Wilson’s debut novel The Witness, coming in June - the most authentic UK legal thriller, full of twists.
Sharing some personal news… this Essex barrister (and now NY attorney) is spending the rest of her life with the funniest, kindest, most generous & impressive person she’s ever met… and he also happens to also be a brilliant head and neck surgeon. 😅🫶🏽 #BlackLove

Cheers to the Alexandra Wilson for reminding us to be ourselves in professions that are dominated by upper class, privately educated white people that went to Oxbridge!
As a Scottish person in London, I’m always challenged on my background & accent. I’m over it!
Sad to not be at my first The Trouble Club event tonight, but luckily able to listen to the brilliant Alexandra Wilson via Zoom. (Stuck at home with Covid 😩) Thank you for the work you do. I’ve been wanting to read your book for ages and this is my nudge.
So amazing being at the beautiful House of St Barnabas hearing the wonderful Alexandra Wilson talk about her career and experiences.

As we head into week 2 of October we are focusing on five more inspirational Black British women by shining a spotlight on their stories each morning. #BlackHistoryMonth #SalutingOurSisters
There are lots of Black people in the UK today making history in their own way. Their stories can inspire us, & challenge stereotypes that persist in society.
Thanks to Life Lessons this #BHM2023 we're reflecting on the success & contribution of Alexandra Wilson.
