Legacy of Resistance workshop
Join an interactive workshop with Southern Voices looking at the 18th century Maroon Wars in Jamaica. Aimed at local communities, students, and educators, we will explore connections to local and global histories of anti-imperialism and anti-racism through presentations, group activities, and discussions.
Participants will create a piece of artwork, poetry, or a short narrative. You don’t need any previous knowledge to take part, just willingness to follow the process as part of a group.
