[matilda] spoken word

[R&A]

Dear Zoe,

here in Matilda we're setting up a group of poets-translators-readers in 
languages other than English. Iraqi poets are welcome to share their 
works and favourite poets with a wider audience, by doing bilingual 
versions and performances, following translation into English. This, as 
a way to promote equality, diversity and dialogue between civilizations 
and inside small communities.
We offer part of this space, Sheffield Works building, once a week for 
such purposes. Free but donations welcome to pay for the 
poets/readers/performers' costs.

Please visit our Wiki for any suggestions and resource pool.
