This two-hour event, programmed as part of Black History Month, will be split into different segments; live conversation, screening and Q/A.
Facilitator Elliss Eyo-Thompson will be joined by storyteller Kelechi Okafor in a reflective discourse to empower the audience through profound conversation about emergence as a form of empowerment. Leading on from this will be the anticipated screening of Delado: Rising from the Ashes which is the focus of the evening.
This documentary delves into the tension of Liverpool 8 following the Toxteth riots in 1981, when local underdogs emerged as a performance collective under the wing of Ghanaian performance teachers. Join us for a Black History month event with special guests, centring the screening of the Delado documentary, about a performance collective who rose from the ashes of Toxteth riots in 1981.
This event is in partnership with National Museums Liverpool and supported by the LADFN (Liverpool African Diasporic Filmmakers Network).
