Poets Liberation Front: Hazem Jamjoum, Jamal Mehmood & Riwa Saab
Hazem Jamjoum, Jamal Mehmood and Riwa Saab will be leading this months discussion with literature that explores the architectures of transnationalism.
Literature has the means of illuminating transnational structures of resistance. June Jordan wrote of the struggles in Palestine and Lebanon from an America in the throes of the Civil Rights uprising. Meanwhile, Ngugi wa Thiongo translates his Gikuyu-language books into other marginalised languages of the globe before permitting them into English. In both ways, fragmented revolutions are fortified as international kinships.
This months guest poets all contribute to literature in ways that establish meeting places; small shelters that defy borders, nations and singularity.
The salon is a space to actively engage in current resistance literature emerging from our political landscape. Tickets are on a sliding scale solidarity rate, please pay honestly.
This event is created and hosted by lisa minerva luxx in partnership with Shubbak Festival.
