Wednesday 23rd February
3-5pm Communications and Marketing for Activists and Non-Profits I:
Listening

In this three-part course, former non-profit marketer Alistair
Davidson will teach you how to plan a communications campaign from the
ground up. In part one of the course, we will discuss the strategic
aims of communication, and learn how to conduct a research survey in a
role-playing exercise.

Over the whole course, we will create a complete communications
strategy for a campaign to save a local park. The techniques will also
apply to other non-profit communications, from trade union organising
to fundraising for oxfam.

5-8pm Pastry tutorial in the kitchen.  Part of the weekly vegan

8:30pm Film screening. “Paris is Burning”  As part of LGBT History
Month, we will be showing Paris is Burning, a 1990 documentary film
directed by Jennie Livingston. Filmed in the mid-to-late 1980s, it
chronicles the drag ball culture of New York City and the various
ethnicities, including African American, Latino gay and transgender
community involved in it. Many consider Paris Is Burning to be an
invaluable documentary of the end of the "Golden Age" of New York City
drag balls, as well as a thoughtful exploration of race, class, and
gender in America.

We will have a short discussion afterwards where people can share
their views on the film. BYOB!

The film will be followed by a discussion of issues raised, if the
kids are up for it. :)
