Assemble at 11.30 am in Mount Pleasant Park, Abbeydale Rd, Sheffield S7 1BY.

MPs will have had their vote on the King's Speech on Wednesday -- will they vote for  Ceasefire?

If they do - thousands have lost their lives, families have been shattered and immeasurable devastation inflicted on Gaza. If they don't call for a ceasefire - words will be inadequate to describe their moral and political failure at this defining moment.
 
Join us as we march for Palestine!

Poetry commission, Who We Were; Who We Became, is a love song threading together the memories, faith and culture of the Windrush generation. It captures their final moments before embarking on a journey in pursuit of a new life.

Danae Wellington and Darshan Gajjar have also made a short poetic film around the piece that forms a window into the Caribbean immigrant story.

It details the musical riddims and the joy-making that helped newly arrived West Indians survive brutal racial violence and discrimination in post-war Britain.

Please note this is a rescheduled date from October the 28th.
