Traveling While Black And Lesbian is a raw and honest story about a queer, black woman's journey around the world and her struggle to navigate it as her authentic self. Khanyisa begins this "tell all" by bringing us into her childhood. She transports us to her life as a little girl growing up poor in rural South Africa, being the first generation of black children to live in post-apartheid South Africa, her conflict with her sexual identity and religion, her battle with depression and loss.

Meet Stanley Williams: Single, in his thirties, grieving the death of his Jamaican father and wondering if there is more to life than his nine-to-five banking job in a sky-high glass menagerie.

The unlikely pair begin an electrifying odyssey that weaves in and out of history, colliding with the forgotten heroes of Europe's past.
