Creating physical space for meaningful discussion

BHM #InDiscussion
October 2018

As part of The Higgins Bedford African and Caribbean Heritage Day, Power In Discussion curated three panel discussions  which focussed on ‘community discussion’ . ‘ D for Diversity ?’ , ‘Black & Glorious’ and ‘ The Generation Gap’ gave way for excellent conversation, networking and a celebration of African-Caribbean identity.  

The Legacy
October 2018

For this interactive discussion held at Kempston Challenger Academy,  we focussed on the positive impact  Black Britons have had on British society, highlighting current and historical figures who are often erased from conversations. The feedback for this event was overwhelming.

What happens at an event ?

Power In Discussion events are an opportunity to bring meaningful conversations off-line and into the community.

The discussions we curate are relevant, topical and often considered ‘necessary’ to the people involved. We select  individuals to share their views, experiences and knowledge as part of our panel discussions.

Our events boast a chilled, relaxed and inclusive environment where the audience are able to engage in a conversation with other listeners, panellists to share experiences, problem solve and connect.

As well as creating space for thought-provoking discussion we are also keen for you to be entertained. Whether it’s live music, spoken word poetry, or both, we are  passionate about showcasing local talent at our events.

Testimonials

The students were engaged and found the talk really interesting. They all learnt something and it sparked a real interest in Black History, especially in the UK. It was well thought-out and executed professionally. The knowledge you both had was very good and your passion was palpable.
