Finding Your South Asian Voice Showcase
Tickets: Free
Time: 7pm - 9pm
A Showcase of work created in two workshops led by Leeds-based performance poet Saju Ahmed.
“Everyone has a story inside them. As a poet and workshop leader, it’s my job to bring these stories out into the light. As a child, I remember being told that children are meant to be seen but not heard. But maybe now it’s time that the children of the diaspora get to speak.
This is a chance to highlight that we exist and that we have something to say.” Saju Ahmed
Saju Ahmed is a poet and performer based in Leeds. He is part of Leeds Young Authors and appears in the award-winning documentary film We Are Poets, following the group as they compete in an US poetry slam.
