Are we not flesh and bone?
Are we not minds and souls?
Are eyes either blind or closed
As if we don’t see
As if we don’t know
They’ll kill you!
They’ll kill you
They’ll kill you like it’s no Biggie
No Diddy

Excited for our FB Live event with ramy youssef Youssef on Thurs. 6/4, along with Season 2 writers Amir Sulaiman, Dr. dr. maytha ميثاء الحسن, and Pillars Managing Director @arijmikati.
They’ll be taking us on a behind-the-scenes journey through the creation of the second season of Ramy.
'It's a familiar experience to poets, that arrival of a phrase laden with more sense than we can immediately discern, a cluster of words that seem to know, as it were, more than we do.'
