Workshops are designed to be for groups no less than 4 people, and can be adapted for classroom sizes of approximately 20-25 individuals.

DESPERATELY SEEKING MALCOLM
Using the example of Malcolm X, young people in their adolescence from the good to the bad have the potential to scale to great heights and to do great work, if only their potential can be unlocked.

RESPECT THAT QUEEN
Contemporary music culture has subtly managed to degrade women, and make it an acceptable part of youth culture. This has affected the way males look at her and indeed how she looks at herself.

FROM HERE TO THERE AND HOME AGAIN
Africans have migrated all over the work, given birth to children in different borders. How do they now relate to their homeland, and the place of their birth? How can their identity be explained?

GENERATION CHANGE
Black history in Britain has had tremendous experiences in their quest for equality in British society. Each attempt of a generation has impacted the conditions and life choices of the next. How have our parents life experiences affected us?

AFRI-CENTRIC POETRY
What unique contributions have Africans and their descendents style of poetry had over the English Language

TELLING THE STORIES OTHERS NEED TO HEAR
How can we be sure that what we say are what other need to hear? Are we getting the best information from the work we write?
