SUMMARY:Formation: History — Critical responses to Black History Month
DESCRIPTION:To launch our year-long Formations programme\, delivered in partnership with Nottingham Trent University’s Postcolonial Studies Centre\, we are pleased to announce our October events\, under the thematic banner – Formation: History\, Critical Responses to Black History Month. \n\n\n\nSNCC’s Stories: Book launch and interview with Sharon Monteith\n\n\n\nThursday 15 October 2020\, 7 pm – 8.30 pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for an interview with Sharon Monteith\, Distinguished Professor of American Literature and Cultural History at NTU\, as she tells us more about SNCC’s Stories: The African American Freedom Movement in the Civil Rights South (University of Georgia Press\, October 2020). \n\n\n\nThe Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee would have commemorated 60 years since its founding in 2020 in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis. This book coincides with that anniversary and uncovers the organisation’s narrative culture and activist literary history. Join Sharon Monteith in conversation about SNCC and her book with Panya Banjoko\, poet\, director of Nottingham Black Archive and NTU doctoral researcher. \n\n\n\nClick here to Watch via our YouTube \n\n\n\nResilience Writing: Creative Writing Workshop with NTU’s Postcolonial Studies Centre writer-in-residence Eve Makis\n\n\n\nTuesday 20 October 2020\, 6.30 pm – 8pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin a writing session with Eve Makis exploring identity and the meaning of resilience\, taking inspiration from seminal works by Maya Angelou. All levels welcome. \n\n\n\nEve Makis is the author of four novels\, a life-writing guide\, and an award-winning screenplay. She teaches fiction on the MA Creative Writing course at Nottingham Trent University\, where she is writer in residence for the Postcolonial Studies Centre. \n\n\n\nAll participants will get the chance of having their work edited and included in a planned NTU anthology. \n\n\n\nFind out more and book your place here. \n\n\n\nDr Leila Kamali talk: John Edgar Wideman: African American History-Making and Uses of Visual Art\n\n\n\nWednesday 28 October 2020\, 7 pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr Leila Kamali invites audiences to learn about her major film and education project relating to the work of the great African American writer John Edgar Wideman. In this event\, Leila discusses Wideman’s work in relation to decolonisation\, exploring the ways that the visual images in his writing signal his construction of a decolonising gaze. \n\n\n\nDr Leila Kamali is a literary scholar with specialisms in African American literature\, Black British literature\, diaspora\, transnationalism and cultural memory. Her research investigates the relationship between memory\, trauma\, language\, and tradition\, in order to discover ways in which literature resists contemporary forms of racism and builds new forms of citizenship. \n\n\n\nClick here to watch via our Youtube
