Forthcoming Events
Culture, Creativity & Non-Violence
Tuesday 1st May, 6:30-8pm in KD.2.22
(Docklands Campus is adjacent to Cyprus Station, DLR)
On 25 January, Egyptian voices that were suppressed for generations finally dared to speak out, to take to the streets, to challenge Mubarak. It was not their sticks and stones which terrified the regime, but the words, slogans, poems and songs of a generation of Arabs who were finally ready to be heard.
In the midst of the Arab political and social awakening, an intellectual and cultural renaissance is taking place in an unprecedented space for their creativity.
In the third and final event in our ‘Tahrir Square Meme’ series, we will be exploring whether a new form of counter hegemony is emerging and its relationship to non-violence and political pluralism. Have the revolutions of the past year made culture relevant again?
