SUMMARY:Taking Control! Humanity and America After Trump and the Pandemic\, with Anthony Barnett [online event]
DESCRIPTION:In 2020\, two mighty sets of forces battled for control of the United States. \n\n\n\nTrump led the charge\, threatening to continue his brand of racist\, gangster capitalism. Revolted by the prospect\, the Democrats\, influenced by Bernie Sanders\, mobilised voters in record numbers. But\, now in the White House\, can Biden and the liberal centre ally with progressives under the banner of humanity to renew democracy on Earth and save our ecosystem? \n\n\n\nFrom Anthony Barnett\, co-creator and former editor-in-chief of openDemocracy\, comes this blazing response to the confrontation between Trumpism and Biden in America\, that sets out how the future of humankind is at stake. As democracy rests on a knife edge in the USA\, changed forever in the wake of Black Lives Matter\, the ongoing climate crisis and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic\, Taking Control! shows how what is happening in America may yet give us hope for change across the world. \n\n\n\nSPEAKERS \n\n\n\nAnthony Barnett is the author of Iron Britannia\, Soviet Freedom\, This Time and The Lure of Greatness. He was the first Co-ordinator of Britain’s Charter 88\, Co-director of the Convention on Modern Liberty\, and was a founding Editor of openDemocracy from 2001-2007. \n\n\n\nMarcus Gilroy-Ware is the author of Filling the Void: Emotion\, Social Media and Capitalism\, and After the Fact?: The Truth About Fake News.

SUMMARY:Welsh (Plural): Essays on the Future of Wales [online event]
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to imagine Wales and “The Welsh” as something both distinct and inclusive? \n\n\n\nFor many people\, Wales brings to mind the same old collection of images – if it’s not rugby\, sheep and rolling hills\, it’s the 3 Cs: castles\, coal\, and choirs. Heritage\, mining and the church are indeed integral parts of Welsh culture. But what of the other stories that point us toward a Welsh future? \n\n\n\nIn Welsh (Plural)\, some of the foremost current Welsh writers offer imaginative\, radical perspectives that take us beyond the clichés and binaries that so often shape thinking about Wales and Welshness. \n\n\n\nSPEAKERS \n\n\n\nCharlotte Williams is an academic and writer. She is Honorary Professor in the School of History\, Philosophy and Social Sciences\, Bangor University. In 2020 she was appointed as Chair of the Ministerial Working Group: Communities\, Contributions and Cynefin: Black Asian Minority Ethnicities in the New Curriculum. \n\n\n\nMorgan Owen is an essayist and poet originally from Merthyr Tydfil. In 2019\, he won the Michael Marks Award for Poetry in a Celtic Language. His work often has a particular focus on the weaving of landscape\, temporality and identity. \n\n\n\nDarren Chetty has worked in education for twenty-five years. He is a co-editor of Welsh (Plural): Essays on the Future of Wales. He is a contributor to the bestselling book The Good Immigrant\, edited by Nikesh Shukla. Darren co-authored What Is Masculinity? Why Does It Matter? And Other Big Questions and How To Disagree: Negotiate Difference in a Divided World. \n\n\n\nCerys Hafana is a musician from Machynlleth. She plays arrangements of Welsh folk tunes and songs\, alongside original compositions on the triple harp and piano. Cerys is also a member of Avane\, the Welsh youth folk ensemble\, and released her debut solo album\, Cwmwl\, last year. \n\n\n\nOriginally from Worcestershire\, Mike Parker has lived in mid Wales for over twenty years. The country has been his muse for TV and radio programmes\, and numerous books including Neighbours From Hell?\, Map Addict\, The Greasy Poll\, Real Powys and On the Red Hill. The latter won the 2020 nonfiction Wales Book of the Year and was runner up for the Wainwright Prize for UK nature writing. \n\n\n\nHOW TO ACCESS THIS ONLINE EVENT \n\n\n\nAn invitation to this online event will be emailed to you on the day of the event.

SUMMARY:Tangled in Terror: Uprooting Islamophobia\, with Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan [online event]
DESCRIPTION:Islamophobia is everywhere. It is a narrative and history woven so deeply into our everyday lives that we don’t even notice it – in our education\, how we travel\, our healthcare\, legal system and at work. Behind the scenes it affects the most vulnerable\, at the border and in prisons. Despite this\, the conversation about Islamophobia is relegated to microaggressions and slurs. \n\n\n\nSuhaiymah Manzoor-Khan reveals how Islamophobia not only lives under the skin of those who it marks\, but is an international political project designed to divide people in the name of security\, in order to materially benefit global stakeholders. It can only be truly uprooted when we focus not on what it is but what it does. \n\n\n\nTangled in Terror shows that until the most marginalised Muslims are safe\, nobody is safe. \n\n\n\nPart of the Pluto Outspoken series \n\n\n\nSPEAKERS \n\n\n\nSuhaiymah Manzoor-Khan is a writer\, poet and educator disrupting understandings of history\, race\, knowledge and violence. \n\n\n\nmore speakers TBC \n\n\n\nHOW TO ACCESS THIS ONLINE EVENT \n\n\n\nAn invitation to this online event will be emailed to you on the day of the event.
