Community visions for liberation

Join us on 24 June for the launch celebration of Systemic Justice’s “Revisiting Systemic (In)justices: Community reflections”, an in-depth look at the experiences and priorities of community activists working on racial, social, and economic justice issues across Europe.  

For our celebration in Berlin (and online for those can’t make it in person!), we are joined by fabulous artists and community activists who will speak to their work and their visions for collective liberation. 

On 25 June, we are convening community activists from across Europe for a full day of workshops, knowledge sharing, creativity and joint strategising for change. 

Community visions for liberation is organised back-to-back with Colour of Surveillance organised by Equinox Initiative for Racial Justice.

Our fabulous panel of community activists are joined by musicians, poets and spoken word artists including Raymond Antrobus, Love Ssega, Femdelic, Ayomide Sotubo, and Deodato Siquir.
