This February, we’re extending the Valentine’s vibes for a whole month and christening this as Love Month! But we don’t just want to talk about tired heteronormative topics that constantly recycled on the timeline, we want to explore the possibilities of Black Love and the wide breadth of experiences and perspectives it can encompass.

As well as fresh editorial on the website and other things happening on social media, each week we’ve asked one of our favourite writers to discuss love – in whatever way they feel most necessary. Today we have our 'literary foremother' Jade LB!
