Sara Assad-Mannings on Palestinian joy, the politics of heritage, and having moral clarity in herself and business

The one where sit down with South London’s worst kept secret 🤫

Emma and Nicole sit down with Sara Assad-Mannings, co-owner and founder of Bunhead Bakery. We talk about her lockdown journey of bringing Palestinian flavours across South London from stalls and pop-ups to a viral bricks and mortar bakery, growing up “ambiguous” but staunchly proud and intentional in sharing her Palestinian heritage and upbringing.

They also discuss food being a safe place and a way to show love, the politics of heritage, how people find connection to a cause, and creating spaces we didn’t have when we were growing up.
