Title: Echoes of Protest
\nSpeakers: Esther Johnson<\/a> (Media Arts, SHU) and Debbie Ballin<\/a> (Film & Media, SHU)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Esther Johnson<\/a> (Reader Media Arts) and Debbie Ballin<\/a> (Senior Lecturer Film and Media) will present work from their on-going collaborative research project Echoes of Protest<\/a>. This project aims to understand the role protest can play in the politicisation of children and the long-term impact of its aftermath on their lives. The first stage of this research is an exhibition titled: A share of a pensioner\u2019s Christmas \u2018Bonus\u2019 which premiered at the People\u2019s History Museum Manchester in Dec 2015 \u2013 Jan 2016.<\/p>\n

During the 1984 \u2013 85 Miners\u2019 Strike a nationwide appeal invited pensioners to give up their \u00a310 Christmas heating bonus in support of the striking miners. Hundreds of pounds worth of bonuses were donated to support this cause.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s Christmas 1984. Sam, Gayle, Jayne and Craig are the children of striking miners.<\/p>\n

This is the story of how acts of generosity by total strangers made Christmas possible for them that year, and what it was like for them to grow up in the shadow of the Miners\u2019 Strike. Through the use of oral history interviews this exhibition bears witness to these untold stories. It includes artifacts from the People\u2019s History Museum archive, alongside an audio documentary and photographic series of personal memorabilia from the strike.<\/p>\n

This seminar will discuss the practice-led process utilised in this exhibition.<\/p>\n

Further information is available at the Echoes of Protest website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Art and Design Research Centre, Sheffield Hallam University and The People\u2019s History Museum have supported the development of this research.<\/p>\n

1.00PM \u2013 2.00PM
\nWEDNESDAY 17 FEBRUARY 2016
