Ongoing Project: It wasn’t my fault<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Ghazi’s background<\/h3>\r\n

Ghazi is a poet and a teacher who has taught Arabic poetry and calligraphy for many years. He studied philosophy and Arabic grammar and went on to teach a range of different age groups and abilities in schools and universities.<\/p>\r\n

Ghazi\u2019s poetry became a way for him to survive impri<\/span>sonment. When you are full of anger and you cannot speak, when you are full of sadness, but you cannot cry, poetry is a way to survive.<\/p>\r\n

Express interest and keep informed on the project’s progress<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\r\n
