In this event, six multicultural queer poets from India and the UK will come together for a showcase of spoken word poetry that explores the intricate intersections of language, identity, and queerness. These poets weave together personal and political narratives, tapping into the fluidity of language while also honouring the echoes of ancestral memory. From ancient mythologies to raw reflections on contemporary challenges, their poems transcend borders and celebrate the tender hope for a shared future.
Come celebrate the transformative power of language to uplift and amplify queer voices at Arthshila Santinketan! 🏳️🌈
