Celebrating the National Mikey Powell Memorial Family Fund, the screening of Ultraviolence, hosts a Q&A session and live entertainment.
About this event
This event will mark the 18th anniversary of the death of Mikey Powell in West Midlands police custody, and will celebrate 5 years of the National Mikey Powell Memorial Family Fund developed by his cousin, Tippa Naphtali, in September 2015.
PLEASE NOTE: Pay on the door if you've missed the pre-booking deadline!
We'll be screening Migrant Media's new film ULTRAVIOLENCE, (part of the 10 Cities Tour) and there will be a panel Q&A on issues raised in the film with a view to moving forward positively on issues of contention between the community, police and other statutory agencies.
This event is delivered in association with 4WardEverUK and Migrant Media, and is supported by Catalyst 4 Change CIC and Birmingham Irish Association.
