Join us for an evening of film and discussion based around the teachings of Frantz Fanon. Fanon, a forefather of contemporary black liberation movements, wrote extensively on the psychological, political and ethical urgencies of black identity in a white world. In this event, we screen two films which cover the eminent thinker’s career, Frantz Fanon: Black Skin, White Mask (Isaac Julien, 1995) and Concerning Violence (Goran Olsson, 2014). Following the screenings, we will have a panel discussion and Q&A about how the black liberationist thought of Fanon has informed and continues to shape black activism in Bristol today, featuring local community leaders including Edson Burton and Marie-Annick Gournet.
In partnership with Come the Revolution and Watershed.
This event is part of InsideArts festival 2015.
