TheDiasporic Literature Spot has now grown and expanded internationally. Theresult is that many artists have found each other through communicationand sharing of ideas. It was all too easy to accomplish through the inborntalent and love of art on the part of all participants.Our aim is to participate, what we offer is a gift to art and what we receiveis satisfaction as a result of our creation. Art is universal and like languageit absorbs cultural and ethnic differences easily starting from the culture ofthe Ancient Greeks that has shaped western civilisation to this day. Sinceit is difficult to bring all artists together in the same geographical locationthe same is achieved by using electronic means and tools we have alreadyin our possession. All as a symbol for truth and justice originally bestowedupon us by our ancestors.Iakovos GarivaldisFounder, Co-ordinatorDiasporic Literature Spot6 Diasporic Literature/Διασπορική Λογοτεχνία/Literatura de Diasporic - http://diasporic.orgIssue 1 Vol. 1, Μarch 2011
