A event on Saturday 27th September. The event starts at 11:00.


Join us for a day of learning, discussion and community in Bristol.
This event is for anyone curious about what apartheid means, whether you are completely new to the subject or already involved in solidarity work.

****VOLUNTEER/PARENT RUN CHILDCARE AVAILABLE ****
****PALESTINIAN MEAL INCLUDED****

We will hear from historians, activists and Palestinian and South African people with lived experience to explore:

* What apartheid looked like in South Africa, and what it looks like in Palestine today.
* How ordinary people have resisted apartheid systems, and the role of international solidarity.
* What can we do together here in Bristol to fight against this ongoing injustice?

There will be plenty of space for questions and conversation, and no prior knowledge is expected.

A highlight of the day will be a Palestinian lunch, cooked and shared by Bristol’s Palestinian community.

*Tickets*

* Standard: £7.5
* Solidarity: £10
* Concession: £5
Nobody will be turned away for lack of funds.

Come to learn, share, eat and leave with ideas you can take back to your own community.

Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
