This event features a screening of Clive Smith’s (AS IT IS tv) film called ‘Bristol’s Afrikan-Caribbean Legends of Martial Arts’ – a documentary that reveals how, through racism and discrimination, some local pioneers created a legacy that embodies turning adversity into achievement.
After the screening there will be some activity and a live discussion focusing on the film and sharing our stories of making community.
This event circles around ‘community’ with a focus on what we do (and what we could do) to lift the people and places up in which we live. We do this by creating opportunities, agreements and culture, often we do this in testing circumstances, and sometimes we do good. Clive is one of these people and he has spent decades documenting what he and others do, often in St Paul’s, Bristol where he lives. He is joined by community workers Judit Davies, Trace Mulzac, Chiz Williams, guest speakers and audience members to discuss these themes.
