Venue FACT
Admission Free, booking essential
Start Time 18:30
End Time 20:00

Film Screening with Bea Freeman, Ray Quarless, Linda Loy, Maria O’Reilly and Janaya Pickett.

Join them for a special one-off screening of Bea Freeman’s renowned 1985 documentary They Haven’t Done Nothing. This film delves into the historical context and lasting impact of the uprisings, highlighting the struggles against unemployment, racism, and police harassment faced by the Black community in Liverpool. Over four decades later, the event seeks to draw lessons for addressing today’s challenges, in light of the recent racist riots in August.

Following the screening there will be a panel discussion on racial justice, where experts and community members featured in the film will discuss the ongoing fight for equality and resilience. The panel will be hosted by WoW’s Creative Heritage Manager Janaya Pickett.

In partnership with FACT.

This screening does not include adverts. Doors open 30 minutes before the film is due to start, and the programme will begin promptly at 19:00.
