I'm so proud to announce that I’ll be serving as a
Juror for the fourth edition of The Brief by LIONS @cannes_lions 🍁
The Brief gives creatives, strategists and marketers at all career stages the chance to be recognised on a global stage. This year, LIONS has partnered with UNICEF to set a global brief that asks you to inspire action for children everywhere - turning problems the world faces today into hope.
I can’t wait to bring my voice to the Jury room – assessing the work that has the power to change the world with the amazing pool of Jury members.
Thank you @unicefsouthasia
it's an honour of a lifetime to represent @unicef 💙

In a time where queer voices are being suppressed, silenced, or spoken over, showing up is an act of survival. Speaking is an act of resistance. Listening is an act of love.
This Queer Open Mic is not just a stage. It is a room where your words will not be twisted, your identity will not be questioned, and your truth will not be turned into a debate. You do not have to perform. You can just exist. You can read a poem you wrote at 2 AM. You can sing a song that kept you alive. You can say three words and walk off. That is enough.
The world is loud right now. But in this room, your voice gets to be the loudest thing.
Come to share. Come to witness. Come because you need to be in a room where no one has to explain why they belong.
Hosted by Deon Demamount, spoken word poet, singer-songwriter, creator, actor, and writer. The only artist in the country to win more than ten National Poetry Slams and the first and youngest poet to serve as a jury member at Cannes (The Brief) representing UNICEF. From UNICEF India to the U.S. Embassy, Kommune’s Spoken Fest, Royal Opera House, Tape A Tale, and IFP World, his work has reached audiences across the country and beyond.
The mic is on. The door is open. Your voice matters here.

I have a lot to say, so like any normal person I dreamt and composed melodies, married them to a funeral of words haunting me and sung it all out instead. Akela, Andhera & Anjaana found you last year, but there's so much more!
I have been very quiet recently, but I'm still here.
Hoping you are too. <3
See you in my secret path I have whispered to life in the mountains till the sea for you. •|

Identity koi test nahi toh prove kiyun karein chachaa??? If only common sense and basic empathy found its way to the policy makers of our country.
It's International Transgender Day of Visibility today and the President has signed the Trans bill making it a law which not only goes against landmark judgements made by the Supreme Court but violates constitutional principles, henceforth marking it as the day Indian transgender laws regressed severely.
Well, we were all illegal once, but we kept resisting and standing up, and will continue to do so by rejecting the bill.
No Going Back.
PART 1/3 Sunlo Kahaani, tha ek Anjaana, Khali Bakse, Mila Khazaana!
