In today's episode I talk to Ruqia Osman, a young poet who performed "Bruises Under Black Skin" at the Black Lives Matter protest in Bristol. As a Somali refugee, Ruqia explains how her life influenced her poems and helped shaped her into the person she is today. You can follow her on Twitter @itsr_qia and get in touch with the show on Instagram @artimitateslifepodcast.
