Send us a textTo celebrate World Poetry Day 2025, we explore the power of creative expression for forging connections and inspiring action within our communities and beyond.The HLA's Ka Man Parkinson connects with two inspiring members of Poetic Unity, Tariq Brown and Blaize Alexis-Anglin, who performed powerful pieces at the inaugural Humanitarian Xchange event in London in February 2024. One year later, we welcome them back to share new works and to hear their advice for how we can all cultivate our own sense of creative expression. Listen to this inspiring discussion of how poetry and other artforms can be used as a powerful tool for empowerment and change through education, advocacy and community engagement. Have you been inspired to foster your own creative expression after hearing this discussion?
