Kenya: a story of resistance & revolution

Join us this Saturday, 6 December, for an afternoon centering Kenyan artists and Kenyan struggle, with an online presentation by Minoo Kyaa, Antony Adhiambo, and Davis Tafari from The Travelling Theatre, plus lino-prints, DJ sets and a fleamarket.

The Travelling Theatre is an initiative incorporating various kinds of art; performing arts, street theatre and public outreaches in promotion of mass education in the quest for social justice in Kenya. It involves a cadreship of trained social justice organizers from different social movements and progressive formations. In this regard, the Social Justice Travelling Theater, inspired by the works of Fanon on the pedagogical method of reaching the masses, galvanised by Paulo Freire’s pedagogy of the oppressed and the intellectual role of the theatre of the oppressed is a towering arm in both internal study and mass work within the framework of the Kimathi Political School.

This benefit event brings forth stories of resistance and revolution told through a variety of creative practices, from street art to theatre. A one-day exhibition including DJ sets, a bake-sale, and a lino-printing workshop. All proceeds go to the construction of the Kimathi Political School, in Laikipia County, about 180 km from Nairobi City.

Saturday, December 6, from 12:00 to 19:30 at Quartair.
Organized by AIN NL.
