Episode 3: Word for the World

Laurie Elen Thomas wants to be able to tell stories that speak to and of her community. Here she tells us about her experiences and challenges growing up as a young, Welsh-speaking, gay woman from Carmarthen, studying in Cardiff, and the barriers that obstruct her telling those stories in her first language.

A student on the BA (Hons) Performance and Media course, we follow Laurie Elen enjoying herself among Welsh speaking friends at Pride Cardiff, but hear her frustrations with the attitudes of some non-Welsh speakers towards the Welsh language.
