Unsung heroes: An evening of music and poetry in solidarity with censored musicians

Date: 29 January 2025

Time: 6-9pm

Venue: The Jago, London

Tickets: £6 (plus booking fee) redeemable for a drink on the night

Come and celebrate the launch of Index on Censorship’s latest magazine issue, Unsung Heroes, with an evening of music and poetry in solidarity with musicians around the world who are facing censorship, persecution and worse for their work.

Music is a universal language of self-expression—bringing people together to celebrate, grieve, protest and preserve cultural heritage. Yet across the globe, musicians are being silenced, suppressing critical voices and erasing histories.

Join us at The Jago in London to celebrate music and honour musicians who use their voice to stand up to oppression.

With music and poetry by Uyghur musicians Rahima Mahmut and Shohrat Nur, and Belarusian poet Hanna Komar. Final act will be Sola Akingbola and the Eegun Rhapsodies.

Free copies of the latest Index magazine will be available at the event for all attendees.
