Online event: We Refugees. Refugeedom, Past and Present - 15 May 2020

Published: 15 May 2020

German-based Minor are hosting this online event at 15:00 - 17:00 BST on Friday 15 May 2020.

The live event follows the goal of We Refugees Archive and looks at the question of the comparability of escape experiences in the past and present. It begins with Tony Kushner's talk "Journeys from the Abyss: Refugees then and now" in English. This is followed by a literary reading on experiences of flight and exile with the Kurdish-Syrian poet Widad Nabi and Jutta Rosenkranz, who presents the life and work of Masha Kaléko. There will then be a roundtable discussion in which viewers can participate with questions via digital channels.
