Growing up Brit(ish): Identity, Diaspora and Belonging

If Poets Ruled the World: The Podcast is hosted by Ruth Elora (also known as The Mayfair Poet) and Salma the Poet. Each month, we explore a different theme and ask one radical question: What would it look like if poets ruled it? Through honest conversation, cultural critique and original poetry, we reimagine the world through a poetic lens. This month, we’re looking at what it means to grow up in Britain while being part of the diaspora. In this episode of If Poets Ruled the World, Ruth Elora and Salma the Poet are joined by poet Kane to explore how growing up in the UK has shaped their identity and experiences. Through poetry and conversation, they share different anecdotes and key historical moments while reflecting on race, ethnicity and belonging. They dive into examples of good and poor media representation, fragmentation in their own communities and how we can do better when it comes to discussing and approaching the topic of race in the UK. Trigger warning: this episode includes discussions of racism and sexism.

Through honest conversation, cultural critique and original poetry, we reimagine the world through a poetic lens. This month’s theme is International Women’s Day. In this International Women’s Day episode of If Poets Ruled the World, Ruth Elora and Salma the Poet are joined by poet Chelsea to explore what it means to be a woman today. Through poetry and conversation, they reflect on safety, intersectionality, and the different realities women navigate across race, identity and experience. Together, they also look ahead — asking what solidarity between women could look like in the future, and what kind of world poets might imagine for women.

episode If Poets Ruled the World - Episode 1 - Love cover

If Poets Ruled the World - Episode 1 - Love

If Poets Ruled the World: The Podcast is hosted by Ruth Elora (also known as The Mayfair Poet) and Salma the Poet. Each month, we explore a different theme and ask one radical question: What would it look like if poets ruled it? Through honest conversation, cultural critique and original poetry, we reimagine the world through a poetic lens. This month’s theme is Love. In Episode 1, joined by poet Humus, we unpack what society teaches us about love — from gender roles and social media myths to family expectations — and contrast it with what poetry and literature reveal. Drawing on voices like Warsan Shire and Rumi, we explore love as devotion, compatibility, faith, revolution and legacy. Because if poets ruled the world, love wouldn’t just be romantic — it would be transformative.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
