Lesson outcome

I can explain how khan uses language and structure to express ideas of identity and cultural repatriation.

Show transcript
The speaker anthropomorphises the pot which creates an emotional connection to the reader. The poem arguably metaphorically considers the fears around identity of those with a migrant heritage. The irregular, fragmented structure of the poem could link to the pot’s feelings of displacement. khan arguably links the poem to colonial narratives of ignoring indigenous stories.
