The Quarantine Hotline #7 — Mona Kareem
Update: 2020-06-09
Description
An interview series in which we beat the lockdown blues reaching out to friends for a nice and informal telephone chat. In our seventh episode, Fernando Sdrigotti talks to Mona Kareem, who is currently in lockdown in New York, USA.
Some of the topics discussed: protest, postcolonialism in the USA, the trap of nationalism in minority movements, writing in a second language as a liberating act.
