intervals. The theme is on the issue of migration, identification with home, the
meaning of a journey and the politics of asylum and British national
integration.
We have invited poets, writers, and refugees from different countries: including Kosovo, Bangladesh, Kurdistan, Trinadad and Nigeria. The Chairman of Exiled Writer's Ink, the Kurdish poet Choman Hardi will also be there.
They will use poetry as a voice to shed light on these current issues, from
the perspective of their personal experience and/ or observation. It is an
occasion that allow their voices to shine!
Entry is for free; drinks are for donations to the Closed Campsfield
Campaign, a detention centre in Kidlington that has violated human rights.
Come and join us in this wonderful evening!
