Dear Artists and Readers,
I am very proud and a little nervous to show you our first spoken word video project.
I really hope you like it because I absolutely loved making it! This is a pilot to see if this concept is working. I am very aware of the fact that I need a lot of practise.
This is just one of many families migration stories. I hold a deep respect for the courageous people who manage to leave everything they know and start their lives all over again somewhere far away. Sadly, it is often precisely these people who are treated the worst. #HumanBeKind
This poem was originally a quick sketch, which I wrote during a recent visit to my grandmother.Let me know what you think of this project. Let me know if you’d like to see more of these videos
Oh and by the way, would you be interested in a spoken word album of Spotify? Please let me know in the comment section below.
Sincerely,
Jovannah Bär
