Is This For Credits?

Khadro Mohamed speaks to us about losing, and then regaining, her Somali language and how her culture and language influence her poetry. She shares her experiences growing up in a New Zealand where she was frequently complimented on her Kiwi accent and we examine what to do when someone doesn’t “understand” a poem.
