Description

How do you ground your work in the sacredness of life while needing to speak back to the very powers destroying them?

Shareeka Helaluddin and Tommy Boutros speak to journalist and novelist Omar El Akkad, following the release of his aching and relentless title "One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This." The work pieces together words and narratives displaced by the violence of empire, while beckoning us to move beyond trying to find words but to move into actioned compelled by the desire to preserve the sacredness of human lives.
