“Afrika Eye is delighted to be partnering with Mandem on their Symposium on November 5th at the Arnolfini. An evening of discussion and debate with keynote speaker, author and journalist Gary Younge. Reaching wider communities and raising the profile of young black creatives is part of a shared vision for both organisations. We wholeheartedly support the work of Mandem and their ideals.” Annie Menter – Director Afrika Eye

 

This event will include an insightful panel discussion on the future of the journalism industry and the importance of authentic representation and diversity.

The panel discussion will be preceded by a keynote speech from award-winning Guardian journalist, Gary Younge. Gary has enjoyed much acclaim for his journalism over the years. Most recently, he was awarded feature writer of the year at the Society of Editors Press Awards and feature of the year at the Amnesty Media Awards for articles about white America and knife crime in Britain.
