A Quaker Take

#18 – Q:Witness – Sanctuary


Listen Later

How can Quakers offer sanctuary to those forced to flee their homes? Jon Martin and Tim Gee explore the idea of sanctuary and prepare for the launch of the Sanctuary Meetings programme.
Tim also asks the various speakers from Refugee Week at Friends House (Euston, London) what sanctuary means to them. Learn why and how Quaker meetings can become Sanctuary Meeting and how you can join our movement challenging the process of destitution, deportation and detention.
Interviews in order: Sita Brahmachari, Gulwali Passarlay (pictured), Maron Ehad, Gaël Le Cornec, Hassan Abdulrazzak.
Closing poems read by Ambrose Musiyiwa from the anthology; Over Land Over Sea, poems for those seeking refuge.
