About this listen
Zed Wondemu is an Ethiopian restaurateur turned author, best known for her powerful memoir Slanted Justice. In the book, she chronicles her firsthand experience navigating the American legal system as a Black female immigrant—and the profound impact it had on her business, her family, and her identity.
A natural storyteller, Zed draws from her entrepreneurial journey and personal resilience to shed light on themes of justice, perseverance, and cultural identity. Her transition from building a successful restaurant to writing reflects her commitment to amplifying underrepresented voices and sparking meaningful conversations about equity and lived experience in America.
