Ep 9: The Peaky Blinders
Episode nine of Poetic Plonk links poetry with the notorious Peaky Blinders. Benjamin Zephaniah is the link and we explore his poem "We Refugees". This episode acts as both a tribute to Zephaniah's body of work, but also highlights the social issues surrounding refugees and how people view refugees. So sit back, relax and I'll see you on the next one.
