A World Of Somalia Warlords And Worship.

A conversation with a young Muslim refugee introduces Regina Lane to a world of Somali warlords and worship; a life full of poetry and pain; and a heart of kindness and compassion.

In my recent work, I have been advocating for action on climate change. Recognising the destruction of the environment has been overwhelming, I’ve often felt distressed and powerless. I’ve had to remind myself that change begins at home, and so in an attempt to live more sustainably, I’ve taken some time out to retreat to the country, grow my own vegetables and reconnect with the earth. Walking softly and learning to listen to the rhythms of the earth, has been a healing experience for me.
