Dir. John Akomfrah | 2013 | 99 mins film plus Q&A
Join Neurodivergent Film Club and Inspiring Women Network, in collaboration University of Exeter, as we celebrate Black History Month with a special screening of "The Stuart Hall Project." This cinematic event pays tribute to the profound philosophies of the renowned cultural theorist, Professor Stuart Hall.
"The Stuart Hall Project" delves into the life and work of this influential figure, exploring his groundbreaking ideas and the lasting impact they've had on our understanding of culture, identity, and society.
Following the screening, we are delighted to host a thought-provoking Q&A discussion with Dr. Nicholas Beech from the University of Birmingham. Dr. Beech's work is at the forefront of a groundbreaking multidisciplinary project aimed at expanding public understanding and engagement with the Stuart Hall archive. This valuable archive, generously deposited at the University by Stuart Hall's family, is set to be fully catalogued by the dedicated Cadbury Research Library team. The project itself is divided into three essential strands: Conjunctures, Readings, and Dialogues.
Join us for an evening of enlightenment, exploration, and celebration as we delve into the legacy of Stuart Hall and his enduring influence on cultural theory. Your participation in this event will contribute to a broader conversation that seeks to deepen our appreciation of Professor Hall's invaluable contributions to the world of academia and beyond.
