Work in progress podcast with Abdullah Adekola - Nour K
“Nour K. (they/them) is a 22-year-old Sudanese journalist, poet, and writer currently living in the Netherlands. They identify with the third culture experience of being brought up in countries that are not their own & yet making homes out of shared experiences. Their poetry collection ’emerge(ncy)’ explores the non-linearity of growing up and themes of connection, displacement & spirituality.” After some technical issues, we get into a really uplifting conversation.
