Authors to Check Out At The Ottawa International Writers Festival (OIWF). The theme of this year's Ottawa International Writers Festival is "A Diversity of Perspectives"
Muslim Link would like to highlight some authors we think are exploring issues that are relevant to Muslims in Canada, particularly Muslims in Ottawa-Gatineau.
Muslim Link interviewed Ethiopian Canadian arts educator Timaj Garad. Timaj is a Toronto-based multi-disciplinary artist, using poetry and theatre to bring stories to life. Her art is auto-biographical, working at the intersections of a black Muslim woman challenging injustice, unearthing truths, and healing. As an award-winning artist and educator, Timaj Garad has graced over 200 stages and facilitated several arts-based workshops. She whole-heartedly believes in the transformative power of the arts and is dedicated to engaging youth in critical arts education initiatives to uplift, inspire, and build ethical communities.
