Weapons, Wounds and What Comes After (mede georganiseerd door WILPF)

A screening of the documentary Power on Patrol, followed by an open discussion on militarised masculinities and forced displacement.

 

Join WILPF for an evening of critical film and collective reflection on the intersections of militarised masculinities, forced displacement, and ongoing armed conflicts. We’ll screen Power on Patrol, followed by a participatory discussion centering voices from conflict zones and diasporas.The evening will close with a live DJ set by DJ Lobo, inviting us into a space of sonic imagining—towards futures that are demilitarised and reimagined.

 

"We’re taught that this is the way the world is... but it’s not actually, in reality, the dominant scene. So what we need to do is dig in, find the examples of countries, societies, communities, and households that live differently, and build those up as the norm. What is it that we could create instead of the system that we have today?”— Ray Acheson

 

 

This event is part of Refugee Welcome Week—a full week of over 20 events including film screenings, panels, art exhibitions, and creative workshops, exploring the interconnectedness of forced displacement, radical hope, and building alternative futures.
