The published Mokadema magazine for poetry amongst other important publications for poetry and prose. The founders of the movement say that given the political situation of the country at the moment their activities will not be limited to only poetry. They will try to be part of the political and social movement taking place, given that arts in general, and poetry in particular, should not be isolated or looking down upon their target audience. In fact, the arts should reach out to the people by participating in social discourse in a deep and meaningful way. The conference starts Tuesday at 5pm in the Journalists' Syndicate, downtown Cairo.
