One Hour: On Belonging

Poetry has long been a tool for resistance, healing, and hope. This Saturday, Persatuan Penulis Berbilang Bahasa (PEN Malaysia) is hosting One Hour: On Belonging, a fundraiser that brings together poets, performers, and activists for an hour of powerful expression. The show supports artistic and humanitarian work in Palestine and Myanmar—and joining us to talk about it is PEN Malaysia member, Deborah Augustine.
