Subhashish Panigrahi | 2019 | English\, Spanish\, India\, Sri Lanka | 1′\nThe real story of a young Colombian man orphaned at an early age. While he was away from home studying in a city\, he found out about a a box of cassette tapes containing his late father’s interview which were recorded by a researcher in Europe. The tapes contained folk songs and stories from the father’s childhood. The young man thought it would be interesting to digitize the tapes and share them online\, and he did that. Soon after his siblings saw the recordings online and they did not like the recordings going online. The question—who owns the content—is complicated. The narrator leaves the audience to wonder who it could be—the researcher who recorded them in the first place\, the late father\, the children\, or the community themselves whose songs and stories are recorded. \nDIZHSA NABANI\nDir. Sabea K. Evans\, Kathryn Goldberg\, Marcelo Jauregui-Volpe\, Edward Ogborn\, Catherine Rodgers\, Moisés García Guzmán | 2018 | Mexico | 45’\nA documentary project on Zapotec language and identity in San Jerónimo Tlacochahuaya\, Oaxaca\, Mexico. \nUMONHON IYE THE OMAHA SPEAKING\nDir. Brigitte Timmerman | 2018 | Omaha\, United States | 67’\n“Our Language is Sacred\, no one can take it from us.”–Omaha Elder. Only a handful of Native American fluent speakers remain of the Omaha Tribe. Fluent speaking elders reflect on growing up speaking their native language\, the efforts that was taken from the government to phase it out and why it is so important to preserve it. Hopefulness is expressed by the elders and a dedicated group of educators attempts to keep their language alive. \nVOICES OF OUR ANCESTORS\nJoe Yates | 2018 | Yup’ik & Haida\, United States | 13’\nYup’ik\, Inupiat\, Tlingit\, Alutiiq\, Koyukon\, Aleut\, Tsimshian\, Gwich’in\, Haida… Alaska is home to more than 20 Native languages.

See first-hand how important your Native language is and the effect on the way you live – a bi-cultural marriage begins to teach their daughter the heartbeat of their culture by revitalizing their language. \nBIMAADIZIWIN (THE LANGUAGE) – WAPIKONI MOBILE\nMary-Agnes Shawana | 2018 | Anishnabe\, Canada | 4’\nFilmed during the Sheguiandah Annual Jiingtamok\, this film explores what the Anishinaabemowin language means to its speakers\, and why it is so important to promote and preserve it\, as it is an integral part of Wiikwemkoong’s culture\, history\, and identity. \nLEARNING DENE AND THE TALE OF THE RAVEN – WAPIKONI MOBILE\nThe Wapikoni team | 2017 | Innu\, Canada | 5’\nLearning Dene can be quite difficult\, but thankfully the children can rely on their elders for storytelling in their native language.

It was the brutal climax of years of civil war\, which had seen tens of thousands of people lose their lives and livelihoods as the kingdoms of England\, Wales\, Scotland and Ireland were plunged into chaos. \nIn this fascinating collaboration with the Museum of London Docklands and HistFest\, bestselling authors Jessie Childs and Leanda de Lisle\, and critically acclaimed playwright and history teacher Thabo Stuck will explore the complex events that led to the fateful moment of Charles’s execution. From the sweeping history of the civil wars and the human stories of debates\, battles and sieges to the mood within the royal court\, the character of Charles I himself\, the resilience of his wife Henrietta Maria\, and the decade-long republican rule that followed. \nIncluding music from Thabo Stuck’s critically acclaimed play\, #50Days\, a panel discussion and immersive re-enactment from the English Civil War Society\, discover the realities of a world turned upside down. There will be an opportunity to purchase the authors’ books at the end of the talk. \nThere are also digital tickets available to watch a livestream of the event. \n  \nAbout \nThabo Stuck is a history teacher from London and the creator and writer of #50Days. #50Days\, Thabo’s debut writing project\, is a Grime Musical that tells the story of the period that leads up to the outbreak of the 17th Century British Civil Wars. Using Grime music\, this show gives underrepresented Brits a voice in telling the story of one of the most integral but often misunderstood narratives of our nation. Described by The Independent as ‘a hurtling exploration of politics and revolution’. \nJessie Childs is an award-winning author\, historian and broadcaster. Her first book\, Henry VIII’s Last Victim\, won the Elizabeth Longford Prize for Historical Biography\, and her second\, God’s Traitors\, won the PEN Hessell-Tiltman Prize for History. Her third book\, The Siege of Loyalty House: A Civil War Story\, was published in May and hailed by Simon Schama as ‘almost Tolstoyan in its emotional intelligence and literary power’. Jessie reviews for many papers\, including the Sunday Times\, Guardian and London Review of Books\, and her TV contributions include the BAFTA-nominated Elizabeth I’s Secret Agents (BBC 2 & PBS) and two BBC series on Charles I. \nLeanda de Lisle is the author of the bestselling Tudor and Stuart history praised for meticulous research as well as strong narratives. She has a Masters degree in history from Oxford University. TUDOR\, her biography of the Tudor family 1437-1603\, was a top ten Sunday Times bestseller\, BBC History book of the year\, Daily Telegraph book of the year\, and History Today book of the year. THE SISTERS WHO WOULD BE QUEEN; THE TRAGEDY OF MARY\, KATHERINE AND LADY JANE GREY\, was a New York Times best seller and is the inspiration for Phillippa Gregory’s 2017 novel THE LAST TUDOR as well as Elizabeth Fremantle’s Sisters of Treason. WHITE KING\, a biography of the doomed Charles I\, was the winner of the 2018 Historical Writers Association non-fiction crown. Her latest\, on Henrietta Maria\, is a revisionist biography of a reviled queen and a Times and Sunday Times book of the year. \n  \nHistFest is an innovative history festival and events company\, which produces online and in-person events and courses for global audiences. \nThe English Civil War Society bring history to life through the authentic re-creation of 17th-century military and civil life\, stimulating interest in the turbulent period in British history when the country was torn apart by civil war. \n  URL:https://eventsforlondon.co.uk/event/charles-i-and-the-civil-wars-the-world-turned-upside-down/ LOCATION:Museum of London Docklands\, No.1 Warehouse\, West India Quay\, London E14 4AL\, London\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Cheap Tickets,Conversation,Education,Events in London,Exhibitions,History,History,Literature,Museums,Online Events,Performing Arts,Politics,Virtual Events,Writers ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://eventsforlondon.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/CivilWar_WEB.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Museum of London Docklands":MAILTO:https://www.museumoflondon.org.uk/support-us/donate GEO:51.5074803;-0.0235205 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Museum of London Docklands No.1 Warehouse West India Quay London E14 4AL London United Kingdom;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=No.1 Warehouse\, West India Quay\, London E14 4AL:geo:-0.0235205,51.5074803 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20221119T110000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20221119T130000 DTSTAMP:20221102T131934Z CREATED:20221102T131931Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221102T131934Z UID:30059707-1668855600-1668862800@eventsforlondon.co.uk SUMMARY:Subversive Scots\, Secret Sodomy and Cats Dressed as Monks DESCRIPTION:Discover stories of public punishment over time \nAs part of the special events programme for Executions\, the newest exhibition at the Museum of London Docklands\, join Nick Collinson aka the Urban Rambler\, on a guided walk exploring the ancient city of London. \nDiscover the darker history of infamous London sites\, including Smithfield and the Guildhall\, through their connections with executions and changes in the law.

But while he’s desperate to develop his craft\, it’s becoming apparent that John is suffering from some kind of trauma. And with a potentially game-changing new commission on his hands\, Isaac does not have time for emotions. \nHaving persuaded Isaac to let him progress to setting from a confusing manuscript of ‘Macbeth’\, John’s trauma begins to spill out onto the print shop floor. Why were those men so scared of his mother? And why are these children scurrying around with sheets of drying ink called… ‘devils’? \nA play about the hidden fingerprints of history – produced in conjunction with the 400th anniversary of the publication of the First Folio – that asks who the storytellers really are.
