BRIG Bi-Annual Summit

Birmingham Race Impact Summit represents a citywide initiative that is committed to addressing racial inequalities through accountable actions that will be judged by its citizens.

Race continues to be a critical issue; as Black, Asian, Refugee, Asylum Seeker, and more marginalized communities continue to be scapegoated for political gain. BRIG's Bi-Annual Summit returns on Wednesday 26th June with the question, "Is Racism Still on the Agenda: or Has It Fallen Victim to the 'Woke Culture Wars' and Continued Institutional Cyclical Performative Actions?"

Explore this question with us and discover what has happened over the last two years - with thought-provoking debates & special performances highlighting the past, present and future of Birmingham as we call for an Anti-Racist City, by keeping race on the agenda.

Speakers will be shortly announced.

We are delighted for the support of Birmingham City University in hosting us at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. We are expecting high demand for tickets, so please book early to avoid disappointment. If you're serious about tackling racism, this Summit requires your attendance.
