Freedom Writers

Happy Freedom Day! The Morning Cruise put out a call to poets in Cape Town to write a one minute/30 line poem about Freedom Day. The poems are part of a larger project that the Morning Cruise is embarking on (more details to follow).

Some of the poets were on air during the week and we also made voice recordings of their poems. Some were in studio today on Freedom day!
