We are not Party to the Theft by Elizabeth Achola sees a group of freedom fights take on the oppressing military. Although there was a clear leader, each message of unity is always said in unison, and in particular: “We refuse this sham election. We are not be party to the theft.”. The theme of unity against all odds is a powerful statement, helping the listeners understand that although each podcast details a different aspect of each personal story, their unity in theatre is what brings them together. “We are not party to the theft” is based on Article 20 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which recognises that mass demonstrations have been the way people demand social change. With the fragility of human rights across the globe, people are rising up to demand for their rights and freedoms. Now, I love seeing women take up seats at the political table alongside men. My role as the “Rascal Leader” in this piece highlights the role and importance of women and our voices in championing and advocating for social change.”

Episode : 8 The poetry of Afghan refugees
During the last six months we have been working with Afghan refugees relocated in Reading on creative writing for wellbeing. We have been comparing Persian literature and heritage, both contemporary and classical, to our own poetry and literature in England. Taking influences from both countries, we have made a book of 25 poems, working in collaboration with Fiona Talkington and Kate Clanchy. We have been especially struck by how, despite war and conquest the Afghan community have strengthened their resolve through the written word, holding onto and sharing the rich Persian heritage of words, and embracing new styles of writing that cannot be destroyed by tanks or rockets.
