Poetry, Journalism and the Spirit of Resistance: An Evening with Atif Tauqeer and Azaz Syed
In times of political uncertainty and social change, words often become a form of resistance. Poetry gives voice to emotions that cannot be spoken openly, while journalism seeks truth in moments when facts themselves are contested. Together, they shape how societies remember, question and respond to power.
This special evening brings together poet and journalist Atif Tauqeer and senior journalist Azaz Syed for a wide-ranging conversation on the relationship between literature, media and dissent. The discussion will explore how poetry and journalism respond to censorship, political pressure and shifting public narratives, and how writers and reporters continue to create space for dialogue in difficult times.
This session is free and open to all. Just visit the venue to attend it.
