Multiple Heritage Voices

Multiple Heritage VoicesBirmingham project launch showcase.

Multiple Heritage Voices, a Birmingham based project has been working with young people to look at the history behind the mixed-race population from the 1950s onwards, exploring issues around multiple heritage and creating a visual resource that can be used after the project ends.

Organisers felt there was a need for such work when Census 2001 recorded a mixed-race population in Birmingham of 27,946, making up 9.6% of the non-white category.

Since June 2006 Multiple Heritage Voices has provided young people with activities and space to learn about their own multiplicity of heritage and nationality.

To celebrate the success of the project there is a youth event in the day for 11-16 year-olds to explore multiple heritage using drama and poetry...and an evening launch aimed at practitioners and the general community.

The evening launch will showcase a new free publication which represents the learning and outcomes of Multiple Heritage Voices a travelling exhibition which will be rotated around local libraries and there will also be speakers, hip-hop acts, lively discussion and carribean cuisine. Both events will help to raise awareness about identity, terminology, culture and 'race' from a mixed-race perspective.

Both events are free so why not pop along. To reserve a place call 0121 250 3545 or email ayobakare@googlemail.com. To view the event flyer click here:
