Re-Embroidered: Her Resilient Voice

Poetry saved my life, as cliché as that may sound. Many nights I lay in bed, unwell, haunted by the injustices I had endured-leaving my home as a Palestinian woman at 18 and encountering further forms of injustice in the UK. Caught in a perpetual fight-or-flight response and survival mode became my norm. Creativity has always been my safe escape, a refuge from years of injustice and abuse. In the darkest times, I found resilience through art, creating videos, and taking the stage to amplify my voice against oppression and injustice.
