Poet DEOL, Renowned for Advocacy Through Art, Presents New Piece “Home Sweet Home

Renowned writer and poet, Poet DEOL, known for his influential platform on http://www.poetryglobal.com and his impactful book “The Resistance Collection,” has released a new piece titled “Home Sweet Home.” This latest creation solidifies his reputation as an artist dedicated to highlighting significant social issues through his poetic expression.

An Artistic Endeavor with Purpose

In his new work, “Home Sweet Home,” the Asian artist Poet DEOL provides a powerful commentary on societal challenges and the plight of the marginalized. His piece is an evocative blend of fervor and empathy, inviting listeners to not only ponder but also act against societal injustices.

Shining a Light on the Overlooked

This poem gives voice to the stories of individuals like Jaggi Johal, a U.K citizen unjustly detained in India since 2017, a case criticized by the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention. Through DEOL’s narrative, Johal’s story becomes a symbol for countless others facing similar injustices globally. The poem reflects a societal disenchantment, exposing the harsh realities hidden beneath the veneer of promised utopias.

Jaggi Johal is a British citizen who was arrested in India in 2017. His case has gained significant attention due to concerns over the legality and fairness of his detention and treatment by the Indian authorities. Johal has been accused of involvement in anti-national activities, but details of the specific charges and the nature of his alleged crimes have been subject to scrutiny and debate. International human rights organizations and political figures have raised concerns about due process, torture, and the potential political motivations behind his arrest and continued detention. This work goes a long way in relaying the plight of Johal and his family to an international audience through art.
