A Liverpool Arts and Culture Race Equality Manifesto was launched to help ensure better representation for diverse communities in the city's arts scene.
The manifesto was launched on May 25 at the Pagoda Arts centre in Liverpool as part of Writing on the Wall's 2023 WoWFEST.
Two collectives; Creative Organisations of Liverpool (COoL) and Liverpool Arts Regeneration Consortium (LARC) developed a Race Equality Manifesto inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement following the murder of George Floyd in 2020. A panel gave an opportunity to hear from some of those involved in spearheading the manifesto, find out about the process, why this work is necessary and how its pledges will be put into practice.
