"I knew about racism, I knew about homophobia, and I knew about Islamophobia before the publication of my book. What I didn't know then was what great power resided in the act of expressing oneself freely and daring to speak from the heart publicly about these issues."

TASHWEESH FESTIVAL, READ
Fatima Daas kicked off the second edition of Tashweesh Festival with a keynote that delves into her lived experiences of being a young, immigrant, muslim, queer writer in France. 

“Our vision is less about the finished pieces, and more about the process, the collaboration, the motivation, the aesthetic and political potentiality of each and every artist. The festival does not claim to give voice to artists and activists, but rather to learn from them by conversing with their practices.”
