Events Update June

This week it is all about the film – Dear White People, premièring in Bristol here at the Trinity Centre in collaboration with Come The Revolution, this social satire “follows the stories of four black students at an Ivy League college where controversy breaks out over a popular but offensive black-face party thrown by white students. With tongue planted firmly in cheek, the film explores racial identity in acutely-not-post-racial America while weaving a universal story of forging one's unique path in the world.”
