Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan is a writer, poet and educator disrupting understandings of history, race, knowledge and violence. In 2019 she published Postcolonial Banter, an anthology of poetry critiquing racism, Islamophobia, and notions of national identity. The collection includes poems which have had millions of online views and been featured across TV and radio. This year she published Tangled In Terror: Uprooting Islamophobia, a non-fiction work which calls on us to move on from debating whether and what Islamophobia is, to what it does and how we uproot it. The book has been called 'courageous' by rapper, Lowkey, 'one of the most exciting voices of her generation' by award-winning channel 4 journalist Fatima Manji, and 'fierce' by feminist activist Lola Olufemi. 

Suhaiymah is also a co-author of A Fly Girl’s Guide to University as well as host of the Breaking Binaries podcast that explores the grey area between ideas we assume to be opposites. She has essays published in I Refuse To Condemn and Cut From The Same Cloth? and has written for The Guardian, Independent, Al-Jazeera, and more. Suhaiymah was the National Roundhouse Poetry Slam runner-up in 2017 and is currently a Visiting Research Fellow in the School of Geography at Queen Mary University of London and Writer in Residence at the Leeds Playhouse. She has written plays for The Royal Court, Albany and other theatres and is currently under commission with Kiln theatre and Freedom Studios.
