Emergence as Empowerment at Tung Auditorium

This is a co-hosted event between National Museums Liverpool and the Tung Auditorium (University of Liverpool).

To book tickets, head to the Tung Auditorium’s website.

The two-hour event, programmed as part of Black History Month, will be split into different segments; live conversation, screening and Q/A.

The focus of the evening will be a screening of Delado: Rising from the Ashes, a documentary which delves into the tension of Liverpool 8 following the 1981 Toxteth Uprisings. Local underdogs emerged as a performance collective primarily under the wing of Ghanaian performance teachers.

Preceding the documentary will be a live conversation with Elliss Eyo-Thompson (Project Facilitator at International Slavery Museum) and storyteller Kelechi Okafor.
