Produced by the Tripwires young trainees, The Poetics of Resistance is an evening of poetry reading and debate produced in partnership with Queen Mary University London’s (QMUL) School of Languages, Linguistics and Film. The evening will be chaired by Professor Omar Garcia.
A selection of powerful poems reflecting on freedom of expression, oppression and resistance will be read and performed. An open dialogue will follow about how and why poets continue using their words inspite of oppression to express themselves, reflect on the world and inspire others.
Tripwires, delivered by Phakama (arts organisation in residency at QMUL) and Index on Censorship, uses the arts to create an open space where young people can explore and express their own lines on freedom of expression, self-censorship and offence.
If you would like to attend please RSVP to events@projectphakama.org by Thursday 24 March 2011, 5pm
