  • Michaela Coel is one of the most dynamic people working in television today. Her new series, I May Destroy You, tells a fictionalized story about the night she was sexually assaulted. The New Yorker describes the show as “a beguiling study of friendship and trauma and writing as a path - albeit not a simple one - to reinvention.” Coel joined Tom Power from London to talk about I May Destroy You and the process of turning personal trauma into art.

    This. Is. How. You. Interview.
    Usually the comments section is full of comments about the person being interviewed, but we really need to give more credit to the people who create a good environment for the person to share and ask insightful questions.
    The interviewer knew Michaela's process and work, was complementary without being gushy and asked great questions while giving her space to talk 👏

    "The amount of protection was blinding me to understanding the true complexity of the world, sexual assault, criminals & victims. That dehumanizing, that flattening over life means that our perception of the world is flattened too." WORDSSSSSS. This was so well said yo.

    She is so gifted in so many different ways.
    I liked Chewing Gum, but this new show is on a different level. Required viewing for our times.
