About this Event
Join us for a reading and discussion of Child Migrant Voices in Modern Britain; Oral Histories 1930s to the Modern Day, featuring author Eithne Nightingale and Maurice Nwokeji, one of the book’s contributors. Maurice Nwokeji will also play reggae music inspired by his experiences of the Biafran war.
We’ll also screen two short films about young people’s experiences of migration: “Seeking Sanctuary on a Scottish Island” by Child Migrant Voices, and “Across the English Channel”, created by a Cambridgeshire care leaver.
There will be an opportunity to buy copies of the book and have them signed.
Free and all welcome. Book your free ticket or just come along!
