A Safe Space to Cry | Show Clip

from The Paris Chong Show Hosted by Paris Chong

Hussain Manawer and Paris Chong discuss how Hussain's grief over his mother's passing has influenced his work as a poet. Hussain feels privileged to receive people's emotions as a form of currency during his performances, noting how many people cry. He views these emotional responses as a positive release for the audience and feels a responsibility to provide a safe space for them to express their feelings. Hussain sees his poetry, which often speaks about his mother, as part of his healing process. He also shares how traveling has allowed him to find "pockets of home" in different places and reflects on meeting people who have led to special opportunities, such as performing at the English Consulate General's home.
