Writers talking to writers

Dean Atta: 'They won't be here forever, maybe just as long as this poem. These two Black boys in paradise.'

In conversation with Delon Jessop

Manjeet Mann: 'Now look at you, standing still, wondering if you have the will. But inside you there's a weapon, a spark, a fire, a sound. Harness its strength. Don't wait. Don't hide. Don't fear the fight.'

In conversation with Sita Brahmachari
