Under Gods, stories from soho road

Along the two-mile stretch of Soho Road in Birmingham, UK, religion has become people’s identity marker, rather than culture or race. Here there are more than 30 places serving religious groups from over 120 different nationalities. Over two years I lived with and documented diverse religious communities, including Rastafarians, the Jesus Army, Sikhs, Hare Krishnas, and Thai Buddhists, all living on this one road. The project was made with the support of a two-year FABRICA research centre (link) scholarship. Dewi Lewis published Under Gods stories from Soho Road in the UK and Editions Intervalles published the French edition.
