I’m marketed as the oppressed one, but I’m living life on my own terms, I’m not wearing someone else’s uniform.”METRO WEEKLY: How would you introduce yourself to someone unfamiliar with your work, who is meeting you for the first time?ALOK: I would say my name is ALOK and I’m an artist and I’m trying to create a world where we can talk in public about the things that we care the most about and where we learn how to love one another again. I would say that I’m a poet and that doesn’t mean that I just write poetry, it means that I live it.
