Stories from a forgotten people: The Western Sahara

A weekend of collaboration between Olive Branch Arts, Sandblast Arts and the Western Sahara Support Group to weave award winning photographs, spoken word, film, music and  visual presentations to tell the story of Africa’s last colony that still exists to this day. We aim to give a voice to the dispossessed, to raise awareness and promote solidarity with a largely forgotten and displaced people. This is a story of compassion and admiration in recognition of the injustice the Sahrawi have faced but coupled with a respect for the strength and creativity they have shown in the face of such adversity.
