FOR MY CULTURE PART 2

For my culture is a night focused on the issues and struggles of Minority Ethnic groups. The night is an exploration of those issues through artistic expression. The night will feature poetry, original music, story telling, singing, short films and even interpretive dance.

For this event we’ll be tackling mental health. This will be our second venture into mental health and we will be giving a portion of the profits to Mind, the parent Company of our last recipients Kindred Minds. Since it’s our second time delving into it we decided we should do it bigger and better, so we are proud to bring together scholars, activists, artists, creatives and a whole host of extraordinary people together in Ace hotel for a night dedicated to this seriously misunderstood but prevalent issue.

For so long now Minority Ethnic groups have never truly got the help needed and truly deserved things that for some are easily treated or have a simple fix and are going unnoticed maybe in some cases they have been swept under the rug or just ignored all together but on the 7 April we will have a night of pure release and relaxation for those that feel they never got a chance to speak, for those that were told they were hyperactive or acting out, for those that wanted support from family and friends but found ridicule instead, for those that know a freind of a freind or for those that are that freind of a freind. It’s s night for people who are curious to understand, for those that are inquisitive to grow in knowledge and for those that believe “no one gets it” to see how many people actually “get it”

It’s a night where people can talk, laugh, dance and enjoy the energy of one another knowing that everyone who has come that night is there in support of what’s happening. The space that is created is for those in need of that space. On the surface It’s a night on mental health, Really the hope is that it’s a night that helps someones life immeasurably
