Featured Events in Arundel in December, 2024 (May Updated)

Displaced is a non-profit monthly concert series where traditional & experimental sounds meet in spontaneity, unifying to create a space for their displaced sounds - a space for artists & audiences to share, feel, rage and heal together. This evening we will delve into the merging of soundworlds from Kristjan Kannukene, Morad Kashef, Nicole Bettencourt Coelho and Roxanna Albayati. Our time and profits are dedicated to supporting displaced communities from the South-West Asia & North Africa regions. Each month, a grassroots charity will be chosen, with whom our team has direct and reliable connections. This month, profits will be donated to the Emergency Response Coalition: Voices of the Unseen, a fundraiser created by a coalition of trusted civil society organizations, activists and community initiatives in Lebanon that represent the many communities affected by the on-going escalation of violence. They use the funds raised to support minoritised groups such as migrant workers and Syrians and Palestinians displaced to Lebanon, and offer help with food, medicine, emergency housing and other urgent needs.

Ever wondered about the stories that shape our understanding of race, justice, and the Black diaspora? Join us for an evening with award-winning journalist Gary Younge as he presents Dispatches from the Diaspora, a powerful collection of writing that spans three decades of groundbreaking journalism. Join us on Monday 2nd December, from 7-11pm at Reference Point (2 Arundel St, London, WC2R 3DA). Dispatches from the Diaspora takes readers to the frontlines of history: Nelson Mandela's first election campaignObama's victory celebrations on Chicago's southsideThe aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in New OrleansIntimate conversations with voices ranging from Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Maya Angelou to StormzyOur guest, Gary Younge, brings these moments to life through the lens of someone who has not just witnessed but deeply analysed their significance. As winner of the 2023 Orwell Prize for Journalism and a professor of sociology at the University of Manchester, his work bridges the worlds of academic insight and compelling storytelling. Every citizen – and citizen journalist – should have a copy, writes Lemn Sissay of this essential collection. Nesrine Malik calls it a public service, whilst Bernardine Evaristo celebrates Younge as an outstanding journalist and chronicler. The book examines how much change is possible whilst unflinchingly acknowledging the systems that resist transformation. Through pieces published in Granta, New York Times, Financial Times, and beyond, Dispatches creates an unrivalled body of work that examines the most significant issues facing the Black diaspora. As Priyamvada Gopal notes, Younge stands as one of Britain's few true public intellectuals... A tonic for our fighting spirit in wearying times. Join us for what promises to be an illuminating evening of discussion, followed by our Christmas Social with drinks and music. Reserve your ticket soon! Schedule: 7:00pm - Doors open 7:30-9:00pm - In conversation with Gary Younge 9:00-11:00pm - Christmas Social with drinks and music Tickets: Members - Free Non-members - £8 Information Source: Left Book Club | eventbrite
