Along with Iranian refugee musician, poet and activist, Mohsen Soltani Zand, the Refugee Action Coalition is putting on a concert and information sharing evening to both bring us all together and to organise for the struggles ahead to find freedom (and permanent visas) for ALL refugees and asylum seekers.
Entry is free, and there will be food available by donation.
A variety of refugee advocacy and support organisations are being invited to come and distribute material about their current actions and initiatives, to sell any merch that they have, and to speak briefly about their work.
