  1. This Time For the Africa Centre: Why protecting this historic institution matters for all of us

    The Bounce Black Team

    Some places are more than buildings. They become home…

    Since 1964, The Africa Centre has been one of those places.

    A space where African culture, heritage, creativity, community and possibility have been able to meet in the heart of London.

    At Bounce Black, we know this because we have experienced it ourselves.

    The Africa Centre has been a collaborator, a friend and an important part of the ecosystem that has supported our work. It has provided space for conversations, programmes, celebrations and connections, creating opportunities for people across African and Black communities to come together, share ideas and build something bigger than themselves.

    That is why its current situation matters.

    More than a building

    When a cultural institution faces financial difficulty, it can be tempting to think about the problem simply in terms of a building, a venue or an organisation.

    But community infrastructure is about much more than bricks and mortar.

    It is about what happens inside those spaces.

    It is about the young person attending an event and discovering a new possibility for their future.

    It is about an artist finding an audience.

    It is about a community organisation finding a place to gather.

    It is about entrepreneurs, creatives, activists, professionals and community leaders meeting one another, forming relationships that lead to collaborations, opportunities and movements that reverberate years into the future.

    It is about being able to walk into a space and feel that you belong there.

    And for African and Black communities, those spaces matter. Massively.

    In a world where our cultural institutions and community organisations are often asked to achieve extraordinary things with limited resources, protecting the infrastructure that enables this work is a collective responsibility.

    A place with a legacy

    The Africa Centre has been part of London’s cultural landscape for decades.

    Its significance extends beyond any single programme or event. It represents a longstanding commitment to creating a platform for African culture, ideas, creativity and community.

    That legacy deserves to be recognised, but it also needs to be protected.

    Heritage is not simply something we preserve by looking backwards.

    Heritage is something we carry forward.

    The question, therefore, isn’t only what The Africa Centre has meant to previous generations.

    It is what it means to us, now.

    And what it could continue to mean to the next generation.

    What happens when a young African Londoner walks through those doors ten years from now?

    What conversations could happen there?

    What businesses could be launched?

    What artists could be discovered?

    What friendships or romantic relationships could begin?

    What ideas could become movements?

    What futures could be imagined?

    Those possibilities are worth investing in.

    Why Bounce Black is showing up

    Bounce Black exists because we believe that wellbeing, racial equity and social mobility are interconnected.

    Our communities need opportunities to connect, develop, create and thrive. That requires more than individual resilience. It requires healthy ecosystems around people.

    And ecosystems need infrastructure.

    The Africa Centre has been part of that infrastructure for us.

    As a collaborator and friend, we have seen the value of having a physical space where Black communities can gather and where organisations can do meaningful work.

    So when we see an institution that has played such an important role facing an urgent financial challenge, we believe it is important to show up.

    Not because one organisation can solve everything.

    But because collective action starts with recognising what is worth protecting.

    This is an invitation to show up

    The Africa Centre has launched the Our Africa Centre. Our Heritage. Our Future. fundraising campaign to help secure its future.

    This is an opportunity for individuals, organisations, philanthropists, businesses and community members to contribute to the work of sustaining this important institution.

    Support The Africa Centre’s fundraising campaign

    And support doesn’t have to look the same for everyone.

    If you are able to donate, donate.

    If you cannot donate right now, share the campaign.

    If you have a platform, amplify it.

    If you are connected to potential funders, philanthropists, businesses or institutions, make the introduction.

    If you have benefited from The Africa Centre or from the wider ecosystem of African and Black cultural institutions, tell people why these spaces matter to you.

    Sometimes solidarity looks like money.

    Sometimes it looks like an introduction.

    Sometimes it looks like a repost.

    Sometimes it looks like simply refusing to let something important disappear quietly.

    Our heritage. Our future.

    There is a tendency to think of cultural institutions as something that can be dealt with later, something nice to have once the more urgent needs have been addressed.

    But culture, community and belonging aren’t luxuries.

    They are part of the infrastructure through which communities survive, connect and thrive.

    The spaces we build today shape what becomes possible tomorrow.

    That is why protecting The Africa Centre is not only about preserving the past. It is about investing in the future.

    At Bounce Black, we are proud to stand with The Africa Centre as a collaborator and friend.

    We hope our community will join us.

    This is our Africa Centre.
Our heritage.
Our future!

    The Bounce Black Team

    Some places are more than buildings. They become home…

    Die Veranstaltung lief sehr gut, ich war so 90 bis 95 % zufrieden und hab noch ein paar Verbesserungsideen für nächstes Jahr.

    Die Teilnehmerzahl war hoch, die Rückmeldungen positiv. Der Rest vom Saal war gut gefüllt und ich glaube, alle Spieler hatten ein paar spannende Runden.

    Wir hatten Spaß und unser Zeitplan lief gut!

  27. CineTAC #4 - Santi Migranti (Scozia, 2022, 24')

    Zamboni 38, mercoledì 22 aprile alle ore 20:00 CEST

    CineTAC #4 - Santi Migranti (Scozia, 2022, 24')

    Il film

    In occasione del quarto appuntamento della rassegna CineTAC proietteremo “Santi Migranti”, documentario del 2022 diretto dai registi Rishabh Raghavan, Capucine Tournilhac e Magnus Course.

    Creando un parallelismo tra la vita dei santi e la vita dei migranti contemporanei, il progetto fotografico di arte pubblica Santi Migranti di Massimo Pastore lancia una sfida visiva al crescente sentimento anti-migranti. Sui muri di molte città e paesi italiani ed europei appaiono immagini suggestive di santi protettori che indossano le coperte isotermiche dorate utilizzate nel soccorso marittimo. Composte dalla grammatica visuale dell’iconografia cattolica popolare, le immagini hanno la forma del tradizionale santino e l’altrettanto classica didascalia sottostante ne ripercorre le esperienze di migrazione. Girato da un trio di antropologi – Magnus Course, Rishabh Raghavan e Capucine Tournilhac – il film eponimo prende il via dall’esperienza estetica dell’incontrare le immagini di Pastore per le strade di Napoli.

    Ripercorrendo la genesi e l’impatto delle immagini dal punto di vista dell’artista e delle persone coinvolte nel progetto, il film si presenta come un’incursione verso modalità etnografiche differenti che cerchino maggiore vicinanza, possibilità di partecipazione e allargamento a più interlocutori. I modelli offrono le loro proprie storie incrociandole alle riflessioni su chi sia un santo o un migrante, sfumando la possibilità di reperirne netti confini o di trovare una risposta ad entrambe le propensioni categorizzanti. Pastore prende posizione: puntualizzando la disumanità del consentire che persone soffrano e muoiano nel tentativo di raggiungere un’altra vita in un altro posto, sottolinea come il problema vada ben oltre i confini dell’Italia. La sua intenzione è tuttavia che il progetto parli ‘per’ e non ‘contro’, allargando le possibilità di relazionarsi attraverso la differenza. Così, il film eccede la descrizione etnografica, per diventare un’esplorazione della capacità delle immagini nel trasformare delle posture ‘anti migranti’ negli stessi sentimenti e legami che connettono le persone ai santi che popolano le loro vite quotidiane.

    Ospiti

    Avremo presenti in aula Magnus Course, regista del film e direttore del Dipartimento di Antropologia dell’Università di Edimburgo; Chiara Scardozzi, docente di Antropologia visiva presso l’Università di Bologna; Alessandra Gribaldo, docente di Antropologia dell’Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia.

  28. CineTAC #3 - La Talaurde/Jailbirds (Francia, 2015, 98')

    Zamboni 38, mercoledì 15 aprile alle ore 19:30 CEST

    In occasione del terzo appuntamento della rassegna CineTAC proietteremo “La Talaurde”, film del 2015 diretto dalla regista francese Audrey Estrougo.

    La Talaurde (o “Jailbirds”) è una pellicola girata interamente all’interno di un carcere femminile e racconta i primi giorni di reclusione di Mathilde, imprigionata con l’accusa di aver favorito la fuga dal carcere di suo marito. Concentrandosi sulle vicende della protagonista, la regia evidenzia, con consapevolezza e crudo realismo, alcune dinamiche che caratterizzano il contesto carcerario, mettendo in luce come questo condizioni fortemente le persone che ci vivono e lo attraversano. Nel dibattito che seguirà la visione del film, a partire da un approccio basato sulla criminologia critica, verrà introdotta la criminologia del condannato (convict criminology), al fine di offrire alcune sollecitazioni per riflettere insieme sulle forme di organizzazione formale ed informale vigenti all’interno degli istituti di detenzione e sugli effetti che queste possono comportare, in particolare, sulle persone recluse.

    Saranno presenti in aula Alvise Sbraccia e Fabrizio Pomes, per aprire il dibattito al pubblico al termine della proiezione.
