SAY IT LOUD!
About the Project
Say It Loud is a new space for young people of Global Majority* heritage to explore and express how race intersects with other important issues in their lives.
Reclaiming Our Climate, the first Say It Loud event, considers the complex history which connects the ongoing climate and ecological crisis with systemic racism.
We are currently seeking participants for two writing and discussion taster workshops exploring themes such as identity, community, race and the environment and to imagine what Reclaiming Our Climate might look like.
Get Involved
The workshops will be held from 1:30pm-4:30pm on Saturday 11th and 18th March 2023 at People’s History Museum, M3 3ER
