Tanti Noor Said

Tanti Noor Said is an independent researcher, poet and writer. 

Her educational background is Cultural Anthropology and she has written many articles on LGBT rights and migration. Tanti has a great passion for poetry, as an unique form of activism. She believes that everyone is the poet of their own life stories, feelings and thoughts; whether you write it down or keep it inside your soul. 

A poem is a venue where a person is able to address the protest, the disappointment and the anger towards those who seem to be more powerful. She believes in the power of speaking out and spoke out herself, at a demonstration of  ‘We Are Here’.
