PAKISTAN: ZINDA HAI
This is another special edition podcast put together by Rawanee’s members in light of current events. Earlier this month, many of us were saddened and disappointed at the turn of events in Pakistan, and wrote and recited poetry for the same*.
RawPods are conversations that celebrate creative ideas and expression, and are hosted by Rawanee.
*Please do note that whilst Rawanee remains committed to freedom of creative expression and thought and to providing a platform for the same, we remain an apolitical and secular setup: the views expressed here are our members’ and may not be representative of Rawanee’s stance as a platform.
