Listen "Nalougo // Write To Life"
Episode Synopsis
Nalougo is a member of a creative writing and performance group with Freedom From Torture. ‘Write To Life’ is the longest-running refugee-writing group in the UK, and the only one specifically for survivors of torture.
They’ve collaborated with many galleries and museums, have produced zines, and have created several projects including one called the alphabet of poverty which explores the many failures of the asylum system in the UK.
As you’ll hear Nalougo explain, ‘Write To Life’ offers a valuable space for people to process their experiences, and he feels strongly that it could benefit so many more people.
A huge thanks to Nalougo for talking to me, and for reading his poems, ‘Belonging’ and ‘Time’.
